Not sure where to put this, as I did not see an electrical board, so if it needs to be moved Mods please be gentle.
I drove home tonight, and as we know the weather wasn't the nicest, I ran through some high water in my Distribution Center Parking lot, and some not so deep (Oxmoor floods in certain spots when it rans for more than 30 seconds) water on the way to the free way in home wood. After getting home I went out later to start the stang to move it so my wife could give me my parking spot under the carport. I tried to start it and even though I had decent battery voltage according to the gauge it just clicked like my battery was dead. I tried it a few more time and was rewarded the last time with an ever so gentle click and bang no power to ANYTHING, no headlights (even a nearly dead battery should give some kind of power to them) nothing.
I'm thinking there's a possible grounding issue, maybe something got wet??? This being my first Fox body I'm asking those who are familiar with them to give me some likely places to start, I figure you guys should know the weak or common spots to check for stuff like this.
Thanks in advance for any help rendered.
