When you get the not so water proof connector apart and dry it out which you should do as if you just leave it to dry by itself it may corrode, when you put it back together fill the connector with dielectric grease so no moisture will be able to penetrate it again.

You have water intrusion past the Weather-pak seal on the wiring harness to the starter solenoid relay. You can try spraying WD-40 or similar short-resolving fluid into the wiring harness connectors, until the problem stops, or you can wait for the harness to dry out naturally. USE CAUTION, SUCH FLUIDS ARE USUALLY FLAMMABLE!

I don't recommend trying to turn on the ignition, as it may cause the starter to grind while the engine is running, causing damage to the starter and the flywheel/clutch.

As already posted, unless you have a very good reason to, hosing off/steam cleaning and engine is really not recommended.

for the last 25 years, because of what you have

(Problems with water intrusion)

Start taking it apart & use an air hose to remove
any water you find

I have a 2012 bmw x5 35i and the front wipers are not working. I changed the relay, checked fuses (#44), and also put a new front wiper motor In. No luck. Any ideas what i can try next?

Checking the fuse is only half the job - use a test light to ensure there is power on both ends of the fuse, then check the power is reaching the motor (switched on).

If power is reaching the motor the problem must be with the ground and then a wiring diagram would be an advantage.
The ground circuit can be complex due to the requirement for self parking and intermittent wipe and 5 wipes after washing the screen. The basic wiper switch is usually two independent switches in tandem. When in the off position the wiper motor grounds through the self parking switching and the main switch...

My camaro started smelling hot I checked the radiator fluid let it cool down and it started makeing ticking noises from the motor i think and its running weird does anyone know wats wrong?

Your motor it knocking. Ether your lifters or rockers. I would stop driving it immediately and take it to a mechanic who can fix the problem before it gets any worse. You may be able to save your self from having to rebuild the whole motor. The last thing you want to do it throw a rod.
