Default A6 1997 - weird problem

something weird just happened to me, to my car. as i was camping suddenly all 4 side windows went down and all locks (doors) opened (itself. .). it was pouring rain and thunder storming, so my car's interior went totaly wet

had anybody experienced similar problems?? how it happened and how to avoid it in future??

thanx

I believer water was leaking from your sunroof drains (there should be stains ont he headliner or pillars) and water got down to the comfort control module located under the carpet on the driver's side. Once that module gets wet all hell will break loose. Pull up the carpet in front of the drivers seat, and pull that black box out. Inside is the module, if its all wet you need to find and fix the leak and replace the module.
It could also be a plugged drain under the battery causing water to come through the cabin air filter box, but that would be on the passenger's side that got wet.
