Any thoughts on this -
2003 Plus 8 (Rover 4lt V8) - Won't start - on turning key instrument lights go out but just a "click". The battery is fine, almost new and fully charged having been on a battery charger/conditioner. Immobiliser seems to deactivate on pressing the key fob button (red flashing light on the dash goes out with an audible click) and fob battery changed. Tried a different key - same problem. Tried a jump starter but that wouldn't work as the battery is fully charged.
All this was after a 100+ mile round trip with various stops and no problems over the previous few days.
Suspecting that the immobiliser is not actually deactivating (even though the warning light goes out), or maybe a connection problem to the starter motor.
Any of the assembled experience here got any ideas? - can the immobiliser be deactivated or bypassed to see if that is the issue?
