It is possible to remove the seat, remove the immobilizer, dry it off, clean it with electrical contact cleaner, inspect the solder joints, inspect the wire contact points, put it back together and find things working again. Search the forums.

By all means be proactive but if the worst happens, don't give up without trying the cheap solutions.

And consider an outside cover given that downpours are happening even more frequently. Even if you only use it when serious rains are predicted, it is far cheaper than replacing an immobilizer that is coded to lots of things like door locks and VINs etc.
