In a previous life in IT one of the acronyms we used was

 

PEBCAK - Problem Exists Between Chair And Keyboard - User error

 

for me at the weekend it was

 

PEBSASW - Problem Exists Between Seat and Steering Wheel - User error

 

So the ignition problem was me disconnecting and reconnected the battery during the testing and the immobiliser getting bent out of shape which I hadn't realised so once I actually reset the alarm. No more ignition issue! 

 

Got some new components indicator switch, hazard switch, indicator light holders and plenty of fuses so let the fun continue!

We always used the PICNIC acronym for IT issues
