Default Water Problem

When I got into my 5th Gen Prelude today, my whole bottom half is full of water. It is basically flooded. I need help. Don't know who to ask. My engine also won't start.

What should I do?

So the ECU got soaked? Man that is horrible dude, good luck. Like he said, just make sure that all of the obvious things are out of the question. I know I have done some pretty stupid things before and had the same results. And they always seem to have happened on Sunday mornings LOL Gotta love those Saturday nights.

I have a friend who left his car out this winter, and when he goes to take a gander at his beauty she's filled with water and has this nasty *** mold smell. He had a leak in his T-top. You should've seen us getting the water out. memories

Call your insurance agent and hope he's in a REALLY good mood.

There's a good reason for buying a remote window and sunroof closer, so when you take the ignition keys out you can't leave a window or roof open by accident. Sorry to hear though, it looks like the best method is to get an aqua vac and suck and squeegee as much water out as possible, then stand somewhere warm with doors open till it dries out, if it's got to ECU then it's likely it's toasted.
