My B5 had a bad lcd and it drains the battery surprisingly fast. I wired it to a second fog light switch in the dash via a inline fuse to the existing fuse way for the dash lights.
My old b5 would throw an immobiliser fault if anything was attached to the key as it dropped down in the barrel slightly and wouldn’t read the chip.
Try starting it keeping the key pushed tight up the barrel if there’s any slack in it.
