Ok so I've replaced relay 30 and 167 and still not firing - there is a smell of petrol and the aforementioned ticking can be heard - so I now edging towards immobiliser - I've check leads, dizzy cap, etc and all look ok. On the brightside I've fixed the central locking by replacing the door/courtesy light switches, only thing that doesn't work is the boot but I would say that is the handle as it feels "loose" - just a shame I can't drive her anywhere!! Lol I'm assuming for security purposes and coz I'm a newbie I am not going to find an online solution to resetting the immobiliser - suggestions on a postcard please
