2003 G35 stalls in heavy rain

restarts but now shows TCS, Slip and Check engine light.
Stalls again, shows same lights on restart.

Any thoughts?

Reminds me of my issue in my 04 350Z but the severity is so much less.. that one was in limp home mode and nearly undrivable.
That was due to a leaking gasket on the old MAF which allowed it to get wet.

This car however still drives quite normal after the restart (except for the 3 lights)

Usually the three lights together are related to the brakes needing maintenance, from what I've seen in the past. If stalling in heavy rain then it's definitely water/moisture getting in somewhere or the MAF is simply being stupid. What codes are in the system?

I had MAF issues on past causing this.. But in this case it was a camshaft sensor.

Weird...
Got it fixed but 2 weeks later traded the car for a 2014 Alti
