Water leak problem. Someone help please.
The strangest thing happens to my 98GS400 after a rainstorm. Somehow, water leaks into somewhere that makes the engine crank. It tries to start by itself and stops, tries to start and than stops. This goes non stop unless I disconnect the battery. After everything drys out, the car goes back to normal as if nothing happened. However, on a couple of occasions, it completely drained the battery. The only culprit I can think of is that I had the front windshield replaced. Is it possible the installers didn't seal properly which is causing water to leak into the fusebox area which causes a short? Anyone have any other ideas? This thing is driving me nutso.

I have not seen the fusebox area wet nor the carpet wet.
No aftermarket alarm system.
