Hey guys, need a little help - I have had a injectors out and serviced, all build back up and now she will not start, no spark and no fuel, I have checked fuse for fuel pump (fuse 11) and it is fine, I did start to take inlet manifold off to remove the injectors but found I didn't need too, so put it all back together same time as injectors, anyone tell me what step to go next?

What engine are we talking about?

Can you hear the fuel pump operating? Checked the CPS?

No. However, if the CPS is duff or the connection to it disturbed, it will prevent both fuel pump and sparks occurring.
