Making sure to follow this guide, I’d recommend taking the speaker out again and checking the contacts underneath that connect it. Sometimes if they get fingerprint oil on them they can stop working. Give them a clean and reassemble.

Hi Mark. If you’re comfortable with it, I’d recommend disassembling the phone and allowing the components to dry out. DO NOT put it in rice. If if you’re not comfortable with taking it apart, take it to a repair shop near you, who can take it apart for you. Assuming it wasn’t in the water for very long, it should be fixable.

There’s a guide on how to open and repair every model of iPhone on ifixit’s website. If you don’t believe me, i’ll show you.
