Sorted. C104 / C204 behind LH kick panel were actually full of water!

Green corrosion cleaned up and it's all communicating again now. Have to say, cutting the connectors and soldering the wires together seems like a good shout if you can be bothered and don't mind butchery. There doesn't seem much point in having connectors there, unless you plan to take the body off or something.

The connectors are only there for assembly of the car during production. Cutting out the connectors ensures that you have no further trouble, leave them in place and it will not be long before they cause problems again.
 
Where's the water coming from though? That's what I'd like to know. I thought I'd cleaned out all my scuttle drains and stuff....

Sun roof drains, windscreen joint, roof joints under the plastic strip. The water doesn't matter so much with the connectors gone and the joints sleeved with glue filled heat shrink tube.

Top favorite is the cabin filter housing to bulkhead seal or through the fixings in the outside shield at the bottom of the windscreen. I built covers for both mine and my son's 38' which stopped the ingress if water 👍
