Hi I'm from JHB owning a Ford bantam Rocam engine, after fixing the oil leakage from the sump I tried starting the car and I refused to crank then two days later it completely refuse to start from the ignition but when I start it directly to the starter It swing without cranking, I then checked for fire and fuel pressure only to find physical that the was neither of the two is happening. Could you please advise of to say why it doesn't start from the ignition anymore and also what should I check or change that the car can have fire. Looking forward to your respond and Thank you in advanced.

This car is the same as a Ford Fiesta, I would look at any grounds that may have been left off during the job which is common. Next, let's test for power at the starter solenoid trigger wire, this guide will help.

Also I would try swapping out the starter relay. Here is the starter wiring diagrams so you cans see how the system works. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
