wont start when it gets really wet!
hi guys,
i hope you guys can help me with my 92 spider..its been having problems recently.
On 26th of Dec LAST YEAR (can u believe it!?) it was raining very hard here in LA and i had my car coverred but it was still parking outside getting all the rain. later that day, the car would not start. i jumped up the car and get the battery recharged to full and the car seemed to be fine. However, it died again after leaving her undriven for 5 days (I was away). i knew that it rained bad in LA during those days. I then jumpped up the car that night and it was fine starting. I woke up the next morning and realized it had been raining over night and of course, it died again. so i am really frustrated now that it seems that the car would not start after it gets completly soaked. I dont think its the battery problem cause i have left the car undriven for 5 days before and it was fine. (no rain). i did have problems where the car loses its power while driving and the check engine light went on after the car gets washed. I then taped the channels on the hood when i wash the car and it was better.
i am sure now that it is the water issue and has to do with the electrial system but how can i get that tested? anyone has any ideas?
