Our 2000 Boxster has been sitting for a while (6 months) . During this time the rear window split and the car seems to have taken on some rain water. I ordered a replacement top with a glass window and moved it into the garage.

The problem is that when I turn on the key all of the lights on the dash blink and it would not start. It turns over very slow as if the battery was dead. So I charged up the battery and when I connected it the windows went down by them self. At that point I could start it but when I press the accelerator the rpm's would not increase. I tried it the next night and it would not start again. I took the battery in to have it tested and they said it was good and that it was at 12.43 Volts with 623 Cold cranking amps. They looked it up and said that was more than enough for this car.

If this is due to the water coming into the rear of the car, what could have gotten wet to cause it to react like this? Could water have entered the intake and now it's vapor locked? Where is the computer on this year model ? Could it be wet? Is there anything else that the water could have affected ? Or could I be stuck on the water being the issue and failing to look at the normal stuff as starter?? If it is the starter I don't understand why the windows and dash lights would be involved.

Please help me

Thanks
