Maybe someone can lend a thought here, This is frustrating and getting very old,Ok first off, windshield was replaced by previous owner, I had a leak coming in at the drivers pillar, siliconed it and no more leak, also siliconed around the outside windshield around it, I sealed the main computer module above the drivers headlight with tape around the edges and made sure the bolts on the cover were tight, I checked the passenger footwell by the fuse box and the drivers after washing the car, NO WATER, , EVERYTIME I wash my car or it rains the following does not work:

Key fob will not unlock
Telescoping wheel
Ac heat
Gauge bright white
Shifter won't work without release button pressed

I have no clue what's going on, I believe these are on the same fuse I don't know what else could get wet I thought everything was dry, I'm really stumped and this is the only thing holding my car back, it's very frustrating, can someone please chime in on what else to check..

did you spray the alternator?

I never spray the engine bay , I hand wash it but I didn't do it this time, maybe a bad ground on the alternator perhaps?

sounds like a multiplexing problem.

That's what I'm thinking but which one... It has to be driver or passenger door right?

Passenger side pillar removed



Passenger side outside window, Horrific seal at the edge and down below, silicon time!!

Well it looks to be fixed guys!!! I've been dealing with this since 2011, I could never find any water, I got lucky and caught it, it's been raining everyday extremely hard, the problem never came back, I'm so relieved, if u run into this problem try revealing your windshield with silicon, take the black plastic trim off it lifts right up and is held on by clips, that way u get a good seal right on the windshield sides, I was done in 10 minutes, wanted to bump this for anyone having the same problem, also I took off my passenger door panel and their was zero plastic protecting the door module, I put a bag over it and sealed it with duct tape over the whole panel besides the speaker, everything's great!.!.!.

Glad you got the gremlins worked out! Electrical problems and leaks are the worst it seems!

Thank you!!! U have no idea how frustrating this has been, it's great to have my car working as she should..

repugnante

After reading the title to your thread I thought you were gonna post a pic of bird crap! LOL! I hate it when that happens after you've washed the car. Happens to me for whatever reason. Apparently that was not your issue.
