won't turn over

[shanehull]

Can somebody please shed some light on a problem i have on my 2004 connect
I didn't have any problems leading upto to this and then one morning it would not start. when i put the key into the ignition and turn nothing, the dash lights up and the battery is ok, I've noticed the heater plug light doesn't go out, the milage won't come on and the security light flashes as it does without the key in, I've tried my spare key and still the same. They lock and open the doors without any problems.
Homestart Recovery said that my battery and starter motor are ok but the starter motor isn't getting a live feed. I then rang an auto electrician who checked it over for a couple of hours but could not find the problem. His conclusion was rather a problem with ecu or immobiliser.
I am going to try and reset the ecu to see if that works other than that could anyone please help

you can disc battery for 30mins and see, has the starter relay been checked? also check earth connections

Thanks for the quick response
Yes he,s tried the starter relay and said thats ok don't know if he checked the earth but i presume he did

How did he check the starter if it has no live feed

[g-man]

need to check that then,what voltage did he get at battery as u can have problems thro' alt loom breaking

Sounds like solenoid on starter has failed and wont engage pinion to flywheel to start vehicle.

Thanks for the replies, the auto electrician is coming back later in the week hopefully to get to the bottom of it. I,ll put your answers to him thanks and let you know the outcome.

Both the home recovery guy and the auto electrician actually turned over the starter motor from under the bonnet which sounded ok
