I Can't Believe I Am So Stupid
Today I took my car through a touchless carwash and everything went crazy. All the warning lights started flashing, temp gauge stopped working, no power steering or brakes and it went into limp mode. I live less than a mile away and was able to get it home. I opened the hood and noticed the fuse box cover was not on. A couple of days ago I installed an illuminated star and forgot to put the top back on the fuse box. It looked dry, but I am wondering if water may have got into the fuse box. I disconnected the front battery and place a light over the fuse box to dry any water that may have got inside. I can't believe I am so stupid. Anyone else have any suggestions?

Sorry to hear of your problem. Try some WD40, it does disperse water. I have to say it is the first time I have heard of such a thing. I wouldn't go beating yourself up over it, we all have done stupid things and I have probably done more than most.
