Yeah sounds like it to me, have you checked those 3 fuses are ok?

yeah checked those fuses today and  they're good.

tested with a new ignition switch today but still the same so pretty sure immobiliser is the problem.
Decided an electronics specialist is the best/quickest way to go. hot-wired it and drove to a alarm/audio specialist who will be sorting it on tuesday. hopefully all will go to plan.

Thanks loads for you help

i'll let you know the verdict/damage

UPDATE:

Just to let you know the immobiliser was indeed faulty. Had it removed and a new one fitted today for the tidy sum of £150    :angry:

At least she's working now!!  :laugh: :laugh:
