Soap and water in passenger compartment

I have a 1995 Accord that when I went through the car wash recently I had soap and water from the car wash find its way into the driver compartment. I got soap bubbles through the dash board vents and the carpet on the passenger side of the car was wet.
Another possable side effect of the wash is that my turn signals are not working now that the car is clean.

Where can I look for the leak and what can be done about the turn signals.

BEST THING TO DO WOULD BE TO OPEN THE CASE ON THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDSHIELD AND SEE IF THERE IS TOO MUCH DEBRIS LIKE LEAVES COVERING THE TUNNELS FOR THE WATER TO DRAIN ON THE SIDES, CHECK TO SEE IF PERHAPS THE FUSE OR BULB IS BURNT, AND USING A OHMETER IF THERE IS CONTINUITY, IF NOT IT COULD BE A CORRODED CONDUCTOR.

How do I get rid of the soap suds coming out of my new bathroom sink overflow (the hole at the front of the sink)?

Your sink drain is partially clogged below the overflow drain so suds laden water is backing part way up that tube discharging suds out the overflow opening.If you have a push-pull built in stopper that's probably holding up a clog just below. Clear the clog, soap suds act like they should.

SUDS COMMING FROM UNDER DOOR OF KITCHEN AID DISHWASHER

This is usually too much soap or the wrong kind of soap.If you are using the recommended amount of the right kind of soap, you may have very soft water, causing excessive suds. Try cutting back on the soap
