I have an 08 Wrangler 2 Door that recently has an electrical issue I can't figure out. I was replacing the brakes and it got a little rain on it with the top down. Not a huge downpour, just a little rain. It started up fine and I parked in the driveway. I went out today to drive it and it started right up but the dash lights were out, the wipers were on and would not shut off and I could not put it into gear. I pressed the brake down and tried to shift but it would not shift into any gear so I was just stuck there scratching my head. The inside of the cab was dry so not sure what's going on there.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
It likely has nothing to do with your brake change. Correlation is not causation.
Start with grounds and your TIPM.
 
You might also open the doors and put a fan blowing into the Jeep at the steering column, that's what usually gets wet and causes problems.
