The rain is getting in the drivers side fusebox, Make sure it is fitted correctly or one of the lugs on the rear has broken off, Had this when I first had mine.

I have posted this before, recently. But it does sound familiar. I had the exact same  problem. The wires that run under the passengers side fuse box where they travel from the F/box through the bulkhead, had chaffed some how. This used to turn the lights on when it rained..flat battery etc. got progressively worse. Until one jump start too many started to melt the wiring. Definatley check that out. Because from the top of the fuse box all looked fine. Its only held in by 4 screws. If memory serves me.
