Some more info may help. What's it doing? What have you tried? Have you checked the codes? Google how to check c5 codes.

Does it crank over and not fire? Or does it do nothing when you turn the key? More info, please.
Pull the codes and post them

Ok if the bcm is wet it's not gonna crank until dry. You need to clean the udders also. Search the forum for cleaning c5 udders.
