It works!
I couldn't tell you *exactly* what fixed it, but having failed to get at the starter motor solenoid terminal (again, MASSIVE hands), I systematically went through the starter circuit with ... |

Spent a good 4 hours just trying to reach the solenoid terminal without success. Can't see it; can just about feel it with the tips of my fingers, maybe, but trying to attach a multimeter probe / leng ... |

Yeah, bump starts fine. So battery, ignition system, and fuel delivery all fine. Issue is either the motor, solenoid, or the wiring post-relay - still working on trying to get access to the motor itse ... |

Yes, you're right; just called the immobiliser company and they report it is currently immobilised again. Saying that, they've deactivated the immobiliser completely remotely, and still nothing.

Alrighty; thanks for the help. Shall go digging.
I did disconnect the third-party immobiliser and GPS tracker completely; though perhaps during installation the engineer didn't quite wrap a vehicle ... |

My Defender won't start all of a sudden. Turn the key, hear several clicking sounds (from within the fuse box, else behind the dash (?)), but otherwise nothing. The battery seems fine - Light ... |
