    Maybe a list of what does and doesnt work

    Could be one of the fusable links, the funny looking fuses near the brake booster. Inspect them see if any are blown and swap them around. Had a similar thing not long ago

    Flat battery.

    ...that's my guess.

    i thought it was battery at the start too but i've recharged it and still dont work. its around 75% according to the charger but the batt should be still good

    Do you have a immobiliser?

    and if so, does it have a fuse... check it.

    Do headlights or other electrics still work?

    does sound like battery.

    They can 'look' OK but drop a cylinder and lose charge despite the charger indicating OK.

    PS: my battery guy is on 0414872132. They will deliver and install for ~$100ish
