Hi ronnie&lana,

When water gets into the cabin, the Power Control Module could get flooded and be damaged. Check them first.

Disconnect the battery negative terminal asap.
Remove the PCM, open it up, use a hair dryer to dry it out. hope it is not damaged yet.

Check the Security and TCM control unit as well.
