Glad you found the issues, your car should run perfectly from now on.
when checking the CE panel,
you should also inspect the computer pins for corrosion and damaged pins,
use Deoxit 100 on the connectors.
NOTE its not uncommon for water to damage the computer connectors.

This is a cautionary tale for folks that use the standard multimeter probes rather than the correct probes to diagnose non start situations.

solder some wire, then hit with a hammer to flatten it,
trim the edges with a file,
then you now have leads that will plug into the connectors.
Water will find its way into the connector and corrode the pins and also corrode the computers, sometimes removing the computer connectors and refitting them will cure strange running issues much like reseating the ABS connectors

Lots of variants out there. Fluke sells a bunch. You should look for ones with a flat blade the same or slightly greater thickness as the LH and EZK's male connector.

The PO over 7 years ago had ball of wire under the hood. This was just another result of someone who had no business working with electrical components.
