Hi due to heavy rain and a leaky sunroof the inside of my 2006 Equinox got soaked. Now I have a check engine, reduced engine power & traction controll lights on and its not driveable. I plugged in the scanner and got the following codes- P0700,P0120,P1125 & P2138. I know what the codes are for but I dont know where to start + not sure where everything is located. Any help would be great. Thanks for takeing the time to read

Need to get into garage pull left&right kick panels check all connections for moisture add dielectric compound to connections. if carpet soaked remove seats and carpet set up fan blow air compartment. Once dried out have drain tubes checked for roof. Clear codes run see what resets

I had this same issue this summer when my sunroof leaked, I cleaned up the connector behind the driver's kick panel and again started having the same issue a couple of weeks ago and have the exact same codes as gwicks100. Checked the same connector again and it was dry but did have a little green corrison which I cleaned up good and the truck was normal for about 5 days until I put the trim piece back over the channel of wires that run along the edge of the carpet and drivers door.

Any advice would be great!
