starting probs

[calvinhutt]

Just got back from business trip, charged battery, ready to go, and the engine would not start. Turns over freely, but wouldn't spark. RAC guy narrowed it down to the loom behind the battery - moving this would mean that the engine would fire immediately when it was turning over. Is it easy for the wires to come loose from the back of the fuse board??? He wondered if it may be the amplifier beginning to fail, but he could find one. He was not sure if the cars have one (maybe combined with the ECU). Any advice? I guess it is a case of battery out and have a quick look???

Any views appreciated...
