But as I think you were saying earlier, yes if they have wired it as I think they have you should be able to earth the white wire and the relay should click when the button is pressed.

When I cut the button out and earthed the white wire the relay did click! I had the ignition turned all the way to start and tapped the white wire to the body. click, click could hear it.

Ok. relay is on. Is it the same column switch that was in the spares car? I’m just trying to eliminate everything that’s all..

Yes transfer the lot as the new car had butchered wiring (transferred same steering column ignition and all) so total swap out (so knew what I was working with was ok) has to be this white wire if it's earth and should have power they must have cut ignition wire from ignition switch or something I guess. I'm not good at wiring will sus it out in the morning

When you connect the white wire to earth does the relay come straight on? Or does it need the key turned to click?

Not sure I will check this!
