short? Sorry, I posted this problem before but got no definite answers. I'm having problems with my security system being activated everytime I wash my car. I found out today it HAS to be something under the hood (I know this now because its the only part of my car that I washed). I covered up all the main electrical components (PCM, Wiring hanesses that lead to it, Fuse boxes) with plastic bags, they still somehow got a little wet. Anybody know of any sensors, connectors, or anything that could be tripping my system? Any way to disable the security system all together with out an edit program? If I run my car through a car wash, the security light still goes on, but my car continues to run, even if I shut the car off, it will still restart, even with the light on. Whereas if I shut the car off and wash it the system will be activated, and it wont turn over. PLEASE HELP ME, I may never wash my car again if I can't figure this out. Its starting to really **** me off. It takes about six hours to dry out before it will start up again.THANKS

I think there is some kind of ultrasound or field
sensor in the wheel wells (for rim bandits I guess)
because I've set my alarm off just reaching in to
check for gravel / nails in the tread (no shock or
anything to the body itself). Maybe these got
cheesed, have a bad seal or something?
