Tried to start her (4.5 LW) at the weekend having not used her for a couple of weeks, pressed the black button and nothing!! Normally hear the fuel pump etc but nothing! All of the lights and windows are working as are the doors, boot and alarm, so battery is all okay, kept on a trickle charger which is indicating that the battery is full, have had a look at the fuses and all look okay but the diagram in the manual bears very little resemblance to the layout in the car. Anyone able to suggest anything to check?
Many thanks WilliamtaBP

Maybe check that you haven't nudged the little immobiliser key to off ? It only needs a small movement.

Happened to me in first week of ownership, remember my heart dropping until i figured it out and then very pleased that turn of a key fixed it! Easily done after cleaning the interior.
