Hello Everyone - I wonder if anyone has come across this problem before?

Occasionally in recent months my car would not start - nothing happened when I pushed the start button (didn't notice at this time if the speedo display was active or not). To remedy this I would have to turn the car off, leave it a few seconds & go through the start sequence again - generally it would turn over & start 2nd or 3rd time. Once running everything was fine.

For the last 2 weeks I have been trying to get it to fire - without success generally. It has started a couple of times but only after I have pressed the horn! having gone through the start sequence. This seemed to have woken the speedo & start button - but only for a few seconds before the connection is lost again.

I have looked at all the connections etc - and all seem good,
I have replaced the battery (no difference)

My car is fitted with an immobiliser - I suspect this is the culprit. I can see the pin out details form the parts list, and have located the item. I have seen a post suggesting that Morgan supply an "immobiliser bypass connector" on new cars equipped with an immobiliser
Regrettably I don't have one of these - I called the factory on Tuesday to attempt to buy one, only to find that they are closed.

Does anyone have a plug they can loan me - just to establish it is my problem. Alternatively has anyone been brave enough to make their own connections between the Inns & Outs according to the parts list.

Presumably if I just connect the in/outs together I will bypass the potentially faulty immobiliser?

Everything else on the dash works apart from the speedo display & illumination and the illumination/function of the start button.

Any help or guidance you can give is greatly appreciated (again).

Regards
Andrew
