Hi there,

You will have to do some basic checks first, Fuel pressure, (fuel pump runs when ignition on for a few seconds) spark and injection pulse. If you can do or get these checked as well as a code read, fault codes dont always turn on the light, and report back with your findings, we can start to look at the causes a bit closer.
