OOOO! I had a passenger side water leak the other day. First time ever and I've had the car over 6 years! Have to check this out....

More than likely not an ignition issue. Sounds like there is an issue with the 12v source to the fuse box. At the top of the fusebox (closest to the firewall) is where the source is. A cable from the battery bolts into the fuse box. Itll be under a red cap. Check that connection and make sure its not corroded, broken or the bolt isnt loose.
