Right the car is dead, no ignition lights or anything.
I've connected all the earths, and ran extra junp cables from block to body, and body to battery.
Any ideas?
I notice a black wire on the 12v car loom, with a ring terminal... is this an earth or positive?

Lee, is it best to pull the old 12v ECU plug back into the footwell and join the wires up there?

Gonna bump this up, as i'm struggling with the same thing on a 1.2 16v...
The wires going to the clocks can also be joined up under the footwell though using the old corsa plug, yeah?

On mine also, the brown and white wires are connected together now, they match.
From the XE Loom, I have the Blue / Black and Brown / Yellow....
On the Corsa Loom, I have Brown / Red, Red / Blue (Thin) x2, Red (Thin), Black (Thin), Brown (thin)...
The ign Live from the bay by the Dizzy, I have connected to the Black wire on the Long 5 Pin Black plug on the original Car loom - Am i right in thinking this is now wrong, and should be to the Thin red on the loom or something?
I've just connected it to the black from the car loom, and i get exactly the same as it is now, with it connected to the black on the ling 5 pin plug - I connect to the red and get nothing...
All i get with it not connected, is the oil light, and the Battery light...
I can't make out whats going on with the whole power thing on it.. I just have nothing?
