is it a HDi?

then diesel will always flow to the injector, however, the injectors are on an injector rail ( the common rail) and opened and closed electronically. you could see if there is voltage running over that rail. is suspect it to be 12 volts but that is up to a HDi specialist to define. It might be that the anti theft start intermitter has packed up, OR that one of your kids or your neighbours offspring have played with the car keys and managed to get the little black "magnet"out that is supposed to be in your key. have you tried the spare keys?

cheers

If it ia an HDI, then this happened on a brand new one recently. Wouldn't start off the delivery transporter. Solution was to disconnect the battery, then reconnect. Full system reboot. If the transponder in the key is not working, you normally get a warning light on the dash. Also on many models, the starter doesn't turn either. If older DT engine, check glow plugs and that they are getting power, ie. relay is also working. If you say that fuel is at the injectors, I assume that you have bled the high pressure pipes, and fuel is coming out of the joint at the top of the injector free of bubbles. (Air in the system will also prevent starting). You could also try the "reboot" as in the HDI for the later DT since they have some electronic control too. Brian.
