Water in engine management

2006 Citroen C2
Car: Citroen C2
Year: 2006
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
Ok, apologies if the terminology is incorrect here, but hopefully it'll make sense!

My C2 is getting water in one of the connectors that plug into the engine management system - of the three its the one nearest the front of the car.

Causing the car to cut out /low rev etc.

Its happened three times so far over the last few months. To get the car running again, I simply disconnect the plug, dry it out and I'm off again.

No matter what I do, I cannot see where the water is coming from, especially given that the battery cover also covers this part of the engine as well.

Does anyone have any experience of this?

Cheers for any help

check the connector at the coolant thermistor. the thermistor may be the problem and its coolant that is running up the wiring to the ecu.
