Range Rover evoque won't start after airbag replacement

Hi guys

Can anyone share any pearls of wisdom as to why my car won't start after having airbags changed? I've got an evoque 12 plate battery has been disconnected and Ecu reprogrammed

Cheers

As you have had airbags changed I guess you have had some sort of impact, just as a thought has the Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch triggered as I imagine it has one off some sort, although you don't say whether the engine turns over or not, wouldn't know just a suggestion.

If a shunt, has the Megafuse blown? This isolates starter and alternator but allows power to rest of vehicle. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

It's been on a machine at a Range Rover specialist today who says the Ecu isn't talking to something I forget what and new software needs to be ordered from Range Rover garage said checked mega fuse as on battery it cranks but that's it

I am the forum moderator of BabyRR.com and have owned two Evoques. I had a lot of problems on my first one with the Battery Management System that was causing the bettery to flatten very very quickly. It transpired that when the battery was disconnected to replace it the Land Rover Assist guy was not resetting the BMS after the reconnection of the battery. This is a stab in the dark as the problem was supposed to have been fixed with a TSB that was applied when cars went in for servicng. Once mine had had a new style of battery (an Absorded Glass mat battery) and a BMS software upgrade I never had another flat battery but it took 3 months of flat batteries to find the problem!
I have posted a link to this post over on BabyRR.com here http://babyrr.com/forum/Thread-Can-anyone-help-this-guy-please
