Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that contain suggestions: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Suggestion
Use an air compressor to to blow all damp areas.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

My car got rained on. Fortunately my sheepskin seat covers caught most of the rain, though the floors were sopping wet. Everything seemed fine, except the audio. The head unit seems to operate properly but there is no sound output. Fuses are all fine. Would it be right to assume that the Bose amp, under the passenger seat, is likely the problem? Can it be repaired or would a used one be a better option? I'm guessing an aftermarket option that is plug 'n play is lots of $$$$. thanks!

In a word; Yep! since your floors got soaked and the amp in "under" the seat it is most likely flooded. However, you may be able to salvage it but you need to start ASAP. Pull the amp out right away. Open it if possible and drain all water out. Use an air compressor to to blow all damp areas. At that point I would let it dry out for several days. There are a multiple of desiccants that can be bought and use but I've been told that rice works well. Now that it is dry you have some time so don't rush to reassemble. When it looks to be totally free of water and DRY then reassemble and put it back in the car. You might get lucky and all will be well. Good Luck!
