Update,
It lives at last, now Friday, what a saga, so the fuse box arrived and was duly fitted Wednesday, still not starting though so my man started to check things out again after thinking we had it nailed with the wet fuse box, OBD scanner still not able to communicate properly, he started peeling back the tape holding the loom together after checking out the wiring diagram, researching further he discovered fuse 22 under the bonnet was the one needed to rid us of the lock symbol but it had no feed unlike with the old fuse box full of water giving a 3.8 volt reading even without a fuse in, this he found was supposed to be energised by the relay next to it, the relay was not kicking in and so he checked its feed and it had power but had no earth or grounding for it to operate, he rigged a temp earth and and she started and OBD scanner connected, I was so happy I nearly peed, by now it was getting late and bloody freezing (coldest spell the UK's had this year), this was the second night on the trot, till 9 first night and 8 last, as he now knew what up he came back tonight and traced this ground wire and found a break, now when I said wire! I have seen thicker pubic hairs! anyway it was soldered together heat shrinked, she started again so he then set to rewrapping the loom where needed and I started putting all the dash trim etc back on, one happy bunny tonight
I've even set the clock to the right time
Hope this helps others, why did it break who knows
