Q: My car won't start after driving through flooded road.
My car was driven through a flooded road and didn't stall out or anything and then I was able to shut it off and start it again but when I shut if off the second time it won't turn on. It makes a clicking sound and the the meters on the dash look like they may have been water damaged or something. I haven't tried to jump it or anything yet but I'm unsure if thats the solution. Please help
