2012 C250 Sport
Unhappy Lane assist, blind spot unavailable after car took on water from rain

A month ago, my 2012 C250 got backed into on the drivers door, nothing major, but the mount for the mirror is pulled out slightly and has a slight gap. A few days after, it rain really heavy. My front and rear floor boards got flooded. There was approx. 1/4" of water standing in the front and back. I vacuumed the carpets as dry as I could. Over the next day or so, the audio from my stereo would go off and on, now it is totally off. Then I would get the lane assist and blind spot unavailable alarm as well as the ABS and traction/stability yellow lights. After about a week the alarms went away, but after another rain, they came back. I found that the amp for the stereo is under the drivers' seat. I got to the compartment and vacuumed as much water out as possible. Still my Lane assist, Blind spot, traction control and ABS continue to come on after driving for about 20-30mins. Next alarms that have showed up are cruise control inoperable and the brake hold does not work anymore. I can turn the car off then back on and they will go away, but then show back up. But the audio is still out. Could it have blown a fuse for the audio? If so, where is it located? Could the sensors just be flooded and just not fully dried out yet again.

Sorry, will re-post in correct forum. The only C250 header I had found was in the W205 forum, was pretty sure mine was a W204, but it did not show C250 in the W204 header.
