Going to take the lower dash out to see whats goin on. Think it's the alarm/immobilser is the problem. It's an aftermarket unit - have no idea who made it - the immobilser part has 2 parts to it - one is a type of card key with what looks like copper lines on it and it fits into a slot. Then there's some form of timed ignition cut-off where you press a small circuler receiver with this round metalic saucer shaped key and the light goes off for 10 secs or so which obviously lets the car start.
