See post dated 10-21-11 for revised post and list of repairs... I am so happy with the car. The bill was another question
... Hurricane Irene.
Did not realize weather stripping around rear gate was bad. about 6 to 8 inches of water in the battery box. Some sort of alarm is steadily screaming inside the cabin up near the dash. I vacuumed out every bit of visible water from around the battery box and computer box. I disconnected the ground and the alarm still sounded. When I disconnected the positive from the battery the alarm stopped but started sounding again when I reconnected.
The radio speakers were crackling with the car off.
I assume the alarm I hear is some sort of ground fault. the car starts and everything seems to run okay... (I heaven't driven it yet). does anyone know how to reset or shut off that alarm?
Right now the car is sitting in the sun hopefully drying out.
