Thats what can happen you cheeky git. Not enough power means no cranking over and piossibly damage to the ECU

follow the loom under the dash.may be under the glove box.if it's had an aftermarket imobiliser put it you need to find where they have tapped into the wire.then cut that out and rejoin it.

yes there is the fuel pump wire runs with the rest of the loom under there.i had to remove the alarm/imobiliser from my gf's tigra the other day and that is where they had spliced the fuel pump shut off in.as its harder for theives to find than down inthe foot well.
