Default Need Some Help Here || D15B7 Auto having issues starting!!

Ok, so I washed the engine bay and I think in the process I may have got a sensor or a fuse wet.

The car will sometimes start right up but when it first happened it was not starting at all and it would just sound like its struggling to start.

It will start if I turn the key to power on about 5 times or so then turn it over, then it starts. Other times I don't have to but I want to not have to deal with it and I hope someone can tell me what it is.

I am pretty sure it may have to do with getting water in something but not sure what to be exact. But like I said, when it happens the car sounds like its gonna start but just keeps reving and it sounds kinda like its not getting enough power to turn over or something. I have new plugs and wires on it and put them on before washing the bay but my dumb *** didn't cover the sensors.

Its a D15B7 automatic trans. Lmk!!!

So it turns over but takes a while to actually fire?
Is there water in the distributor? try taking silicone spray and spraying out the distributor cap and spray all the wires down too.
It may just be turning over slowly because its been turning over more than usual trying to start it and just weakened the battery.
