Answer: No. Your motor is not sealed and if water gets into it, the components will deteriorate and stop functioning. You should try to dry out the motor with a fan or cool air. See if it dries out and comes back, but normally water is "the end" of an electric scooters prime drive components. The controller, throttle, and motor are all suceptible to water damage. If you need a new motor, batteries, or throttle/controller, you can check out this Electric Scooter Parts Store. You can contact the manufacturer, Currie Technologies too if you need further manufacturers assistance.
