Hi, new member here.

So I goofed and left my windows down on my 2005 G35 the other night and my sprinklers sprayed water all over the drivers side dash. Car has keyless ignition but it won't turn even when manually inserting a key. All other electrical components seem to be working and I don't have any blown fuses. I've tried moving the steering wheel back and forth but that's not working either. I have unplugged all of the harnesses under the dash and let them dry out for 5 days and unhooked the battery for 24 hours. Any ideas? Car only has 100k miles so I don’t want to trash it but also don’t won’t to spend thousands at a dealer either.

 

I'd start with the Fuse Block - J/B in the driver footwell, see if there's any blown fuses, see if it's wet.

I'm betting something got wet and blew a fuse which is preventing the ignition lock release from working.

 

I’ve checked all of those fuses and the two fuse boxes in the engine bay and they’re all good. Could it be a relay? Is there a way to test relays?

When I push the ignition switch in it beeps but it has a different tone when I put the physical key in. The red or green key symbol on the instrument panel is not lighting up. I tried to turn the headlights on and no lights came on in the instrument panel. I don’t remember if that is supposed to illuminate with the key off though.

 

Move upstream to the IPDM engine bay fuse box and the fusible link.

Yes the instrument cluster should be lighting up.
