I know you're not mad at me. If I were mad at you I just wouldn't reply. I still dislike them in most cases though.
If you think the problem started with the Windex, that's where I would place the blame. I guess you're the only one who knows the answer to that. Or if it started with the rain through the sunroof. Usually it'll dry up after awhile, especially glass cleaner. You could try getting an airhose in the area and forcing some air through the shifter area, it may help.
I hope for your own sake you have a manual, especially on a 220 car! There is a very small U shaped door towards the rear of the shift gate. You use a small thin object to push open this door and there is a small lever down under there you push on and it unlatches the shifter. This would also be a good place to try airing out the shifter with compressed air. Although I can't verify it would be completely safe you could also try blowing O2 in there, like from an oxy-acetylene torch, that should help dry it out also. Just make sure to use the O2, NOT the acetylene!
In the future apply the cleaner to a RAG, then use the rag on the car, don't spray anything in or around the shifter.
