When turning the key to the on position, I hear something under the engine cover start to almost whine and click, the noise continues and doesn't stop. I finally left it on for about 5 min, and then I heard it go off. All the electronics in the car do work, Lights, Horn etc.. I checked all of the fuses with a tester and everything seems to be fine. Do you think the car not starting is related to that "whining Noise ? Is that the Fuel Pump ? What may I check from this point.

Thank you

this should be it's own topic... but your fuel pump(s) are generally in tank or in the frame near the tank. since everything got wet inside you should let everything dry for awhile. Disconnect the battery and hope that you diddnt fry any computers in the process... Check all your fuses look for any broken ones.
