[lout]

I brought the car with the engine out as a forgotten project.

ahhh the missing piece of the puzzle
didnt think this was important enough to mention earlier

I mentioned that in my previous post on diagnosing the fault but this was one more directed at the PIM itself so didn't think it was necessary.

a quality scan tool should show if antitheft is working correctly

Just got the SS running last week, turned out to be a faulty BCM.

What in the BCM was faulty? Did they let you know?

No idea, was able to borrow a bcm and key from a wrecker mate to try. Auto sparky linked it and she was away. I pulled the board out of the case and didn't see any sign of damage. I'd say something got fried when I tried to start the engine and forgot the main earth, either that or sitting for two years caught up to it.

This bit of info would have helped at the start.

I had mentioned it in another post but it was ruled not a factor due to the dash OBD and fuel pump not working before I even tried to start it up without the earth. Auto Sparky said it could have effected the ECU but not the BCM, forget I mentioned it.
