BIG Electrical Issues

I NEED HELP! I just had my Navi detailed and now the thing is acting crazy!

The lift gate keeps opening and closing on its own...then not at tall when I hit the button.

It killed the battery overnight even after I unhooked the liftgate motor.

After charging the battery and backing it out of the garage to put the mats and stuff back in it and get it ready for a trip to FLA in a few days, it wouldn't start. Everything electrical works. IT seems like a solenoid, if it weren't for the other crazy stuff!

I also am not getting any display the digital readout part of the speedo cluster.

The battery is at 12.5v.

Please help....like I said, we are supposed to drive it 17 hours to FLA on Wednesday!

What did you get wet that shouldn't have? Was a pressure washer involved?

I didn't do it, my wife paid someone to do it.

I do not think a power washer was used under the hood either. they wiped it all down, but I don't think it was power washed.

My first thought it was the switches in the center stack go wet and just needed to dry our, but it should be good by now. And that shouldn't affect the starting of it.

Totally clueless why this would be happening.
