Re: Coils getting "fried" after washing engine

Common problem. The COPs are especially susceptible to water damaging them. The EDIS is a little less finicky, but can still cause issues.

Use dielectric grease on the COP or wire boots. Use it liberally. But really, you shouldn't use water around the COPS or ignition system anyway. Avoid it. Scrub it with a damp rag if you have to but don't spray water there.
