Update - Now fixed. Fixed it a few weeks after posting, removed the underbonnet fuse board top and one of the connections was fried underneath for the starter relays. Cleaned up, recrimped and it's started and done 5k since. Changing the ignition switch helped alot of previously mysterious issues too. Like the radio randomly cutting out and the doors unlocking and locking again.

Half an update but no better off. New battery to eliminate that. Changed the ignition switch to eliminate that. Checked all the fuses, everything ok on that front. Radio works, interior & exterior lights work. Locks, unlocks. Have taken a video to explain better. No dash lights at all when key is inserted, turned etc. received_213760436438656.mp4

2008 petrol Octavia randomly won't start after being parked up for 20 mins. Seems to have battery and have attempted to jump start it, matrix is displaying time, but no lights on dash to indicate it's getting power when I put the key in ignition and turn nothing happens at all. Can lock/unlock, lights and radio still work, just zero happens when key put in ignition and turned. Few people have suggested the ignition switch so think this will be first port of call unless anyone has any other ideas? Thanks! Stef
