Starting problem
Discussion
after parking at work and then looking to pop out at lunch, found that she wouldn't start, check all the fues etc and found the one that is on the Hot start mod had blown, replaced it still keeps blowing. removed the Hot start Mod, still will not start.
I can hear the fuel pump priming no problem, also check the fuel cut off switch just to make sure that this just need to reset.
Any help would be grateful otherwise it’s the AA to get it home and then look at it there 

When you say it won't start do you mean it's cranking but not firing or not cranking? I know the immobiliser disables the fuel pump but it also does the starter circuit too so if it's not cranking it could be that, or the starter motor itself, or the starter solenoid.
If the hot start fuse keeps blowing then I'd suspect something in the starter circuit, probably the solenoid or starter motor.
If it's cranking and not catching then you can ignore that.
It's always worth thumping the top of the dashboard on the passenger side in case it's the immobiliser (not if the car cranks though).
What happens when you turn the key to the start position? Do you just hear a click? Is it silent or does she crank?
