My Boxster's electrical system is screwed up.

My 2001 Boxster has been outside during the deluge of rain in Northern California, and the other day while driving the interior lights stayed on, and after parking, it wouldn't start. Wouldn't turn over. Finally, after repeated tries, it did start, but after I got it home, it was dead again. Nothing seemed to work. Had to use a jumper cable between fuse box and frame to even open the bonnet. A day later, it started again and I took it to my mechanic, who thought there was a problem with the drainage in the box under the driver's seat, and that was the cause of the weird electrical issues. He tried to dry that out and I brought it back home. It now starts okay, but pressing the remote button that's supposed to lock the car instead opens the trunk. And if I lock the driver's door by turning the key, the passenger's door doesn't lock. So I got problems.

Any insights or suggestions? Thanks.
