1995 Jaguar XJS Car won't start


I had the engine washed. It was left running while being washed. It stalled suddenly. Dried everything possible, still no spark. All fuses good. Let sit for two days still nothing. What could have shorted or gone bad? Any suggestions?

Check all fuses, just to be sure.When you dried it out, did you unplug connectors to blow them out? Hot engines make steam when wet and it can get into everything.Start with all ignition connectors and the MAF plug. Do every sensor you can find. Might need to scan it to see if the PCM stored a failure code
