possibly a bad connection to the dash. I've had an unable to start situation in the past where I've been messing about with the dash connections and nothings lit and nothing works. Follow the FAQ for dash removal and draw it forward. You'll need to crane your neck to look at the back of the dash and check the security of the connector blocks, one of them I remember is some sort of once-only connector and if someones taken it off in the past it'll probably only be a loose fit which may fall off quite easily if you've gone over a bump, I had to bodge mine a bit tighter with some insulating tape. The other's are full on block connectors and no problem.

No connection at the dash means your ignition warning light doesnt come on so your alternator doesnt get excited - i think.

if anyone thinks different feel free to correct me, i wont be offended

regards

pierso
