I seem to remember something like turning the key to the on position and leave it for five minutes, turn off and then it should be fine after that. Maybe someone else can confirm.

If that dont work, you will have to check what you have just done, as i know someone that fitted a supercharger, and when fitting, trapped some wires together and the security light was on, and didn't start :o

If you remove the Battery, the immobiliser kicks in, and you have to leave the ignition on for 6 minutes, then turn off, and then start..

I presume yours went completely flat, or at least flat enough to activate the immobiliser..
