Urgent! Car not starting!

hey guys.. was on the way home tonight and found that my indicator had blown at the front, turns out its a loose connection where the indicator is, was fiddling around with it tryin to get it to work but no joy, problem is, i had the hazards on while i was trying to get it to work but then all the indicators stopped working, now when i turn on the car, it idles for a few seconds and then dies.. this happens aswell when the hazard light button in the dash is disconnected.. could it be a fuse? when i arm the alarm, the indicator lights come on though?! help please!

Aftermarket alarm/immobilser kicking in?

nice one rowdy, that was part of the problem... the indicator drained all the battery this morning aswell and the fuse blew along with another (located beneath the abs fuse) its sort now, but i did fork out €48 for a new batter :( ah well.. i learned from my mistakes

it happened to my swift gti. Is it a key fob one or not? Mine wasn't, I ended up having to pull the wires out from behind the centre console where there was a button that would deactivate it.
 
think you may be able to just disconnect it, but don't try anything without someone confirming this 1st!!!!!! Trace the leads back and check they look ok too.
