Water and electronics do not mix well, at all.

The inside of the Pencil tip has an electronic sensor that is protected by the hollow plastic Pencil tip.

If water got inside there ( very easily to do ), the sensor may have been shorted and the Pencil now non-functioning and defective, now.

Maybe time to get another Apple Pencil.

Keep all electronics away from all sources of liquids.


Good Luck to You!
