[928uk] No start!

[Richard Armstrong]

If you have spark the CPS is ok (I think this may have been mentioned)
Pump pumps when cranking so you may not hear it
When I first got RIA I managed to trip the alarm/immobiliser getting in 
the car. The engine would turn over fine and spark, but no pump. I would 
check your immobiliser circuit.
In my case it gor worse as I got out, opened the bonnet and shut the 
door - which then locked with the keys in the ignition. Luckily Carol 
Nash offered a recovery service - the car had to be put on skids, 
dragged onto a truck and recovered from Liverpool to Wiltshire, 
whereapon I got the spare set of keys and drove the car off the truck 
and back up North. V embarrasing. The immobiliser gave intermittent 
problems for years until I got riid completely

I did change it for a new one as preventive maintenance a few years ago but perhaps it’s failed. Can’t test it properly till home and now waiting to be recovered, but if I’ve missed anything obvious please say!
