Trying to figure out now how the water got in there. I dried it all out, cleaned the corroded contacts and sprayed with contact cleaner so it all seems to be working now but if I close the lid and spray with a hose I don't see any water getting in.

Is this a convertible? I believe the F13 Coupe the older it is the more prone to the weather seal around your boot lid coming loose on the corners. It seems whatever glue BMW used over time it degrades and the seal starts to fall off, I had to reglue mine on both ends of the boot lid. Have a look this might be your issue perhaps?
