Hmmmm mines got the key and comes up with a message saying immobillizer active

Turn the key round 2 clicks and get a pic of the lights that come up straight away and then one with the ignition off see if we spot something you never know

this might seem stupid but have you checked the fuse for the fuel system?

Havent had a chance to get there today so will go tomorrow, i'm sure the fuse hasnt gone but will check it so can rule it out, there is that fuse thing for the gauges so maybe thats messing something up.

Take the fuel feed to the rail off and stick it in a jerry can then switch the ignition on. You'll soon know if your pump is priming on the key or on starting
