When you say nothing happens you mean the starter does not even engage and try to crank the engine? If it cranks, but won't start and run, when hot after parking at shops on a trip, the cranks shaft position sensor is indicated.

Does the LED on the cluster show any of these patterns?

The LED has a dedicated signal from the BCU to indicate the status of the following:

Alarm armed: The LED flashes at 10 Hz with a 50:50 duty cycle for 10 seconds, after which the LED flashes 50 ms on, 2 seconds off until the state of the system changes.

Engine immobilised: If the engine is immobilised and the ignition is on, the LED is illuminated continuously. If the engine is immobilised and the ignition is off, the LED flashes 50 ms on, 2 seconds off.

Alarm tampered: If the alarm has been triggered, the LED flashes at 10 Hz with a 50:50 duty cycle.

l Handset battery low indicator: If the handset battery is low, the driver's door is open and the ignition is switched off, the LED flashes two pulses of 50 ms on, 50 ms off, every 10 seconds.
