Dreaded p04/f04 after pressure washing

I've been coming on here for at least 12 years but this is my first post!! Got a fg30n serial af13f00258 sold and was prepping to go out-machine ran perfect no codes..... but I decided to pressure wash it prior to servicing and doing other maintenance... it got wet and would not crank threw a code e38....brought it inside pulled all the electronic connectors blew it out and put fans on the machine-let it sit overnight and came in and did the other things it needed-plugged everything up and now I have a no start condition with p04/f04!! I've checked all connections, swapped relay and fuse boxes, vcm, cluster, ecm, (with correct part numbers off known good trucks) cleaned and checked grounds, etc I'm at a loss.....I think a wire broke inside the insulation when I was disconnecting everything or something! Does anyone have any tech info on this or "tricks" I don't know what wires to check for resistance and voltage etc -I've got an unicarrier truck sitting here with 2k hrs with the same problem....

Fact of the week
At the opening ceremony of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1932, marching bands were instructed to walk out of step as they crossed the bridge. This unusual directive was given as a precaution due to concerns about the bridge's structural integrity during its early use.
