2001 7.3L Won't Crank, under dash relay clicks

Hey guys, I am new to the boards although I have been reading for a while.

I have a 2001 F-250 7.3 193k miles, original owner.

There are a few issues so let me start at the beginning. Last week my key fob/remotes stopped working.
A couple days later I noticed my OD light flashing while I was driving home on a rainy day. The following morning I noticed my driver side floor board was wet along with the connections at fuse panel. The truck would not start and inst cluster and panels were going crazy. Disconnected Batteries and I removed the fuse panel, dried out connectors and replaced.

The crazy clicking and door chime stuff has gone away and everything seems normal until I go to turn the key....faint click from the relay under the dash is all I get....so quick rundown
1: Remotes stop working
2: Fuse Panel wet (Dried and back together)
3: Now won't crank

any help would be appreciated.

Brand new batteries last month
New Alternator
Battery cables seem tight and no corrosion

Is the rain water leaking into the cab from the front window seal? Is it leaking into the wiring under the dash?
Thats great news.

What was the cause of the driver side floor board and the fuse panel being wet ?
