I assumed that. But now the battery light has come on. The battery is dead because it's not charging obviously. And now the engine seems to be running on three cylinders with a rough idle. What is going on now? Is it still a problem with the water?

Hi all, I need help urgently. I have a 99 sti and for seven years not a single problem. This week I list the car on trademe, and typical, have a problem with the car. I degreased the engine and hosed it off a couple of days ago. Now when I start up, drive down the road and use my indicators, all the needles on my dash bounce around for half a second. My check engine light came on with a code 85, which is "charger system circuit malfunction". What's the problem, have I just got water somewhere or do I need to go to a mechanic? Thank you very much
