I had the same problem... even got standing water up near the security control module... it wasn't fried, but I think for some reason it activated the starter kill, because when it happened, I couldn't start the car. Everything came on, it just wouldn't engage the starter.

Put it in service mode and find the drain hole in the molded foam piece on either side. I just stuck my finger in there and broke loose the crap that was in there. Poured a little water down there, and they flow fine.

I have not checked the front drains, but will do so soon.

Does anyone have any actual live pictures where the drains are located. I'm having a tough time locating them from the diagrams.

Thanks

How did you resolve your starter kill issue? I may be having the exact same issue. Thanks!
