Car Wont Start After Running Though Heavy Water This Morning
I have a 98 Corvette I ran though a good deal water on the way to work today due to very heavy rain I had water come in thru the drivers side floor board and now the car wont start and says Reduced Engine Power and bunch of other messages is there anything down there that could have gotten wet. I did some research and read some things that said it could be the TP Sensor where is that located? Thank you in advance.

You definitely got stuff wet. There are grounds and computers in the floor boards. On the passenger side there is a computer behind the front kick board of the passenger floor board I think. Good luck in fixing it. You could have a lot of problems.

Sorry I don't know what all could cause it. Best thing to do is pull the codes and search on corvetteforums. They have tons of information about all the codes and possible problems related to them. It might not even be something that got wet inside. Also check all your fuses. Something might have shorted and popped a fuse under the hood and I think there is a fuse box in the drivers floor board but that might be wrong.
