Got E36 325, when door is closed, car wont start, no ignition lights on dash, nothing. When door is open, it starts! WTF?

Is the eleccie windows circuit somehow wired into a smart lock system where it wont allow ignition?

Anyone got any clues?

sounds like you've got a short circuit along the door light switch.

go under the dash/steering to find if there is an alarm system that is playing havoc...

My money is on the alarm..

I found it. The battery cable was freyed. Sitting in the car jaulted it enough to give it enougfh connection. Stupid car, last place I looked!
