My 87 pathfinder is doing the same thing with just a clicking sound during ignition.It died on me at the bar and the next day when i was all hung over i went to get it.Basically i just took a screwdriver and tapped on the solenoid for the starting motor while my buddy tried to turn it over,after a few tries it started.Now the peice of crap just wont start at all even with tapping on it,all i get is the clicking sound.All that water may have just hit a connector on the starter assembly and fried the solenoid.
