You believe water infiltration caused it, how much water did you get in? Any puddling at all on the floor?
It's possible you got water on the immobilizer, but it hadn't corroded yet. If it got wet at all, it may still be wet under the relays where you can't see it.
If you suspect it got wet or damp at all, douse it with rubbing alcohol to displace the water and then let it dry out thoroughly.

Thank you, I already took out the immobilizer, put it in alcohol, dried it out and cleaned the contacts as best I can.
I am Debating taking a heat gun to the microchip. I think this may melt the welds a bit to get a better contact.
I'm a bit worried it may make it worse, maybe the solder will just seperate from the various pins.
