Nothing happpens when key turned.
All the usual clicks and noises associated with the relay pack and fuel pump happen. Battery and oil light on.
Immobiliser seems to deactivate, at least I can hear it click and the light goes off.
Tried jumping - nothing
Tried bumping - starts and runs fine.
Replaced starter and solenoid - no change
Replaced relay pack - no change
Battery cables seem fine
Earth strap body to engine seems fine
All fuses seem ok.
Going to relocate the starter/solenoid earthing point tomorrow but it looks ok.
Kinda at a loss. Wondering if I could try hotwiring to rule out faulty ignition switch?
Any suggestions gratefully received.

Probably the easiest way to test the Ignition Switch is to connect a Test Lamp to the Starter Solenoid wire in the Engine Bay, that's the White Wire that has the Red trace on it.
Also, don't overlook the plug in the short loom from the switch is making proper contact, though, I'd say it is likely the Switch, they do wear out.

Clean all the earth's and body where these attach to, also check the loom connections are shiny at the starter

How many earth connections are there that could cause ignition problems? Battery to body, starter to body are the two obvious ones. I’ve an additional earth strap from engine to body which I fitted years ago due to earthing problems but can’t remember where the others are.
