Hello,

First of all, does the engine crank over but does not start or does the engine not crank?
Is the engine light on?
If so, next carry out a CAN scan to check for any relevant code.

Hello,

As mentioned before, if the engine light is on then there will be fault codes stored.
I would suggest to first conducting a CAN scan using a suitable diagnostic tool.
Once you have retrieved the fault codes, please post them here so that we can evaluate them and advise you accordingly.
This is usually the quickest way to diagnose a non-starting situation.
