Quickest fix is to remove it !!!!!!!  Usually located either behind the clocks on drivers side or behind glovebox/airbag on passenger side. Unplug the control box and give it a try.

00668 = battery power supply voltage, sounds like battery fault or a wiring issue, or perhaps ecu relay needs to be replaced

If it were the battery then the dash lights would be dim and the engine turning over would be slow. If you get a short spark then nothing then the coil seems to be working. I would still bank on the immobiliser. How did you test the immobiliser ??

Faulty dizzy could affect the spark but would not affect the fuel pump at all. If you are having the immobiliser tested/removed then I think this will solve your problem. The immobiliser usually lets the engine start and cut out straight away. Keep me informed of how you get on when the immobiliser is removed.
