if i were you i'd put some wire nuts on the wires and tape the ends of the wire nuts to keep water out of the wire nuts.
he wasn't putting the wires together he was seperating them that is why i suggested wirenuts not scotchlocks. i'm a liscensed electrician and we use scotchlocks but not for this instance

You need to be a bit more specific about the problem your description is not very clear.

Epoxy or silicone sealant, which you might have on hand.
There are waterproof splice kits that you can buy, though.
