   Think you need to disconnect the battery for an hour.

   Go on the thread I had,.had this same problem less than an hour ago, took immobiliser out while the engine was on, no more light and car starts all the time, however I dont think this is your problem, as the immobiliser only affects the car while starting, it's irrelevant when it started, I think you should check the earths wires on the battery.
