If it makes a single click when you turn the key and nothing happens in terms of starting, then it sounds like a faulty Inhibitor switch.

See this thread.

yeah helps mate so the switch is under the center dash???

To switch it back to manual start, switch the 2 wires under the glove box.

If it is the inhibitor then i think you need to chec the wires from the gear selector itself as detailed in that thread.
