Default Rain Soaked...

98 coupe under cover during 13.5 inches of rain in 3 days. Developed an interior water leak on pass. side with rug wet, headliner wet. Both switches fog headlights & hatch release do not work. The small light on the fog light switch is not lite. Another problem is the blower motor not operating at all. Never had a problem til the rain and leak. I have been checking fuses but all seem good... What other things do I need to do to resolve these issues???? AT WITS END. All three were good prior to to the Noak's Arck rain & all three are inactive after rain & the leak.

Thanks

Sorry this thread has no response. I must now made my way to a dealership to resolve. Losing interest by members must be the reason for a non response

Without researching the service manual, I'm going to make a guess that, since it was leaking on the passenger side, the BCM may have become soaked. It's located behind the floorboard in the passenger footwell and is many times the source of numerous problems, particularly those that are water-related.
