560SEL ECU Questions: Car is 'Possessed'

Hey guys,

Some rather odd news from my indy today. I had him hook up the car to the lambda to tune her up after my distributor and plug install, and my idle, despite new Idle Control Relay, Vac components (They smoked it as they thought that was the issue at first; nothin.), EHA and OVP... The car's idle still 'revs' in place, and decides on its own when a disconnected module or plug will affect its function. We decided that the only possible source would be the ECU, which up until now, has been the only original module I thought was bulletproof in my car. He actually told me that my car 'was possessed'.

So I take out the carpeted sections and lo and behold, the ECU is slightly wet

How do I take it out and open it? Would these symptoms be caused by a faulty or malfunctioning ECU? And more importantly, where the heck could water be leaking from to get there? Firewall? Sunroof?

I replaced my windshield earlier this year, so it definitely ain't that.

At least, it better not be.

Thanks again guys,

Carlen
