Hi Pedro, Thanks for your message.
The auto electrician has been back again and has been able to get the car started by bypassing the battery control module using his own power supply. Strangely this has positively effected the battery control module and now the car starts from the cars own battery. How long that is going to last is debateable, we ran out of light so he will return again to try and cause the system to fail, then we will know for certain. On inspecting the module there isnt anything obviously blown or damaged but that doesnt mean its not playing up. The last thing we want is to be stranded miles from home.
The good thing, it appears that there isn't a broken wire in the loom and that nightmare maybe averted.
I think I will be buying a replacement module just in case it happens again. The look on my wife's face when I told her that her Bat-mobile was running again was priceless................well almost.
Take care all, Cheers Bob.
