Maybe scan for fault codes and see if more than one thing is going on there. Water damage can cause electrical problems and they are sometimes intermittent and hard to track down. Changing the ignition relay to make it run might be coincidental to the real problem making it hard to diagnose. Good luck, it is probably nothing serious, just annoying.
