well a while i go i fuked the immobilser wire i thought it split in two whitch it did i didnt expect the wires to fly out it the way it happend so i didnt have a clue what sequence they went i tried to match them up quickly with no joy so went down to ford tried to order a new immobiliser loom but they no longer exisit so tried to find one everywhere with no joy or no one willing to split it from the main loom so i decided to get another key transponder plug leave the wires on it number the 4 wires on the end of it and number the wires i pulled from the original a quick search on google revealed 24 diff combinations so i tried them all with no luck immobiliser light still flashing i then tried the booster on it aswell case the battery was a wee bit too weak to turn it over tried back throo the combinations and got it cheeserd to hear it start again first time from being fully rebuilt basically started to flatnin it aswell with 600 lol thts how bad it is coming up not bad but time i go upto 800 , 1000 then 1200 once i get it all to about 1200 ill run over it with some 1500 or 2000 looking good but just need to build up the dash again sort the heater seems to have stoped working for sum reason fit seats , engine flush , decent engine oil , gearbox oil , power steering fluid motd in taxd in were good to go
