Default Help Needed

I have a 1995 sl500 , my problem is that the seats , power mirror , tilt want work .
I was replacing the cps and the new one I was replacing it with would not start the car so I ended up putting the old one on to start the car so I could move it .
I made the mistake of going into the house to take a break and the windows were down , well it came a hard down pour of rain and the car got wet on the door panels and water on the carpet .
I read the forum and tried what was suggested , I checked all the fuses and they were all good - I don't have anyway to pull the codes , has anyone had this problem and can share how they fixed theirs ?
thanks in advance .

the seat modules are under the seats. remove the bottom seat cushions and see if they got flooded. my sl has two large Phillips right under the front of the cushion, once removed lift hard on the front.

I removed my seats today and looked for signs of water and the wiring harness to both modules felt damp .
I unplugged all connections looking for any sign of corrosion but seen none .
How can I tell if it is the seat modules ?
Also I forgot to say that my wipers will not park either .
Any Advice on what to do next ?
