MK1? Check all switches, I would look at the bonnet one as that has been the offending one on my mk1 a while back. It had moved slightly, enough to be not quite switching off when the bonnet was closed.

It could be soggy sounder if it's a late mk1, or one of the door or bonnet swiches as Mick said.

While it's still working, take it out, dry it out and seal it, as there's almost certainly still water in there.
Next time it fills up you might not be so lucky.
