It's possible to "pump" water into an allegedly waterproof enclosure.
Heat the GPS with hot air to about 45C. Then dump it in a bucket of
10C cold water. The air inside the GPS will contract and create a
partial vacuum, which then sucks the water into the enclosure (if
there are any leaks).
It's a bit interesting that the same problem can apparently happen with hub dynamos. Supposedly, the SON hub dynamos (from Germany) have a pressure compensation gizmo built into them to prevent that mechanism from rusting the insides of the hub.
