I had this issue with water running down where the main loom comes through the bulkhead and into the ECU. Its becuase my wires didn't run through the original rubber grommit.

Made things a bit smelly for a while till I worked out what bit was leaking.

Don't let it happen often, rusty rusty will pay a visit to the front floorwell if its not sorted
