That's an excellent question, and a great point.

It seems like the fluid would also short out the pins going into the connector if it were conductive.

So that implies "no", but doesn't explain how it shorts out the circuit board.

I guess it's possible that on the circuit board, the voltages are higher, and the components are in closer proximity?
