HDI Not Starting - Back Again!!

If the immobiliser is blocking start, the EML will be on, I can tell you that this is not an immobiliser issue. Does the EML ever come on? Remember it doesn't look the same as most other cars - it looks like this:

perfect thanks for that. yes, it was coming on when the car was running. its not coming on now though. I got it scanned after borrowing a code reader and it took some going to get it to work but eventually got it working. codes as are as follows;

P0403 - exhaust gas recirculation control circuit
P0510 - closed throttle position sensor
P00CC - Fuel control regulator solenoid supply voltage control circuit low

Im guessing the fault lies with the last code but could that be a result of an ecu fault? When scanning etc the EML light didnt make an appearance at all.

EDIT - meant to add, theres a fuel cut off switch that is sitting up by the ecu. the wee bracket that holds it seems to have broken and is missing, so it can move about a wee bit. The switch was also cable tied to its plug to stop it flailing about. its engaging would it kill the ecu?
