Strange thing is he says that he has no dash lights, no head lights, wiper will work, interior lights will work??????????? Didnt think immobiliser would effect these??
He said he cant find a blown fuse

the key symbol is the immobiliser try disconnecting the battery for a few minutes then reconnecting it sometimes resets the alarm/immobiliser.

will it jump off ? how old is the battery ? alternator ?
