puddle killed my ex

[dino11]

so a couple weeks ago i was driving, and where snow had melted in the street i had to run through a large ish puddle. i hit it at like 10 mph i mean nothing drastic. so i drove it another 5 or so mins, stopped at a stoplite and it died. wouldnt start. wouldnt try to start. so i started hunting fuses. i found a fuse under the hood that was bad and i replaced it. i forget what it was i can look it up again if need be. but i replaced it and it started. ran for a minute or 2, then same process. same blown fuse. i replaced it with anew one, still wouldnt start, untill i rocked the vehicle.
then it started.

i am assuming that water got inside of some wires and shorted/grounded them out. i drove it home and its never done it again.

i have somany factory electrical issues on my 02 its ridiculous. what good is a car if the underside of it cant get wet.:thumbdwn:

So since you have a recurring problem with the same fuse blowing...note what the fuse corresponds to...that's going to lead to your problem.

Let us know which fuse it is and what the manual says it's for and it would help alot in figuring out what's going on here

ugh i forget, i dont have my book. it was an underhood fuse. open the panel, snd there are 5 or 6 mini blue fuses in a row. it was the one closest to the windshield. in the book it listed 3 or 4 abbreviations, but idk what they were for. i asked around and had no luck.

luckily it hasnt happened but that 1 day.

thanks for the help, it was more a rant than a cry for help but i would like to see if there is a remedy, if i knew what that fuse did!
