Although the motor was now in the car and a little less accessible I quickly connected it up and switched on... and it works.

First run
I have been trying to work out why I couldn't get the motor to run, everything is just as it should be, I was coming to the conclusion that the controller was setup differently to the standard. However just as I was about to start sorting out a CAN converter and working out how to access the settings I gave the system one more check over. A last check of voltages on the switch inputs showed that the old switch I had dug out of a very old box of parts wasn't switching... so the interlock line wasn't being set high.
Although the motor was now in the car and a little less accessible I quickly connected it up and switched on... and it works.
