Hmm sounds like the ghost of an immobiliser being fitted.
check to see if the feed has been tampered with behind the glovebox, there is a loop wire there for immob to kill the coil, if its been tampered with it'll be obvious, linking green to green should solve the issue.
if in doubt put a pic up of what you find
