cover up the fuse box with plastic, and dont spray water on it is possible. when i hose the engine i switch the car on, so the engine is idling. once done let it run for a min or so before switching off.

Make sure the fuses are well protected s Hyperion says - have made that mistake in the past. :cry:

Have also found that keepng the engine on a good idea and let it run for a few mins before driving or stopping engine.
