Possible electrical short?

[theamazonman]

OK so... this is my first post on here and I am new to the whole forum thing. But yesterday i did some 4 wheeling with a buddy and came up to what looked like a shallow mud/water puddle. Well it was way deeper than we thought (about 4 feet) and I got stuck lol The water in the cab was up to my knees and it got everywhere so I had to steam clean the carpet. Luckily the front drivers-side corner was the corner that was submerged and the air intake didnt seem to suck any water in but there are some weird electrical problems.

1. Cannot open the rear hatch/roll window down or up
2. Rear defroster worked at first but now the light goes out after a couple seconds of being lit. Rear wiper also does not work
3.Cannot operate some of the drivers side seat controls. (wierd huh)
4. During the whole drive home the radio worked just fine but today it is also no longer working.

So far my friend and I have checked any possible fuses and none of them are blown. I am by means no mechanic so I have no idea what it could be. Anyone care to help? I will greatly appreciate it!

That's learning to check water depth before entering the hard way. You need to dry the truck before diagnosing. Open it up and let it sit, driving after drowning it probably did some damage but it's impossible to check wet electricals.

Unfortunately this is probably going to be an expensive lesson.

@ CXS- How true, been there, done that, just got lucky when I did.

Drying is the best as it will hopefully solve some of your electrical problems, what it doesn't, will be lesson learned.
