I accidentally spilled water on my MacBook Pro M1. Brand new.

Anyone have any experience taking their mac pro for repair because of water spill, and how much it cost them to repair? Even if with Applecare +, how much to replace logic board and stuff? I'm afraid it will cost me $1,000 or so just to repair/replace the damaged parts, that's the price of a new macbook, and that's unfortunate...thanks for the reply!

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.2

If you have AppleCare+ it will cover a large portion of accidental damage.

AppleCare+ (similar for iPhone and iPad, each incident of accidental damage) for Mac will carry its own price tag. Screen damage or “external enclosure damage” will run $99 per incident, while other damage, including water damage, will run $299. Users receive coverage of two incidents under AppleCare+, and after the two incidents have been used up, out-of-warranty replacement rates will apply
