Immobiliser?

[Majorcina]

I dont think it is atached,central looking pump is not mounted neither alarm

Battery dead not giving enough juice to turn it over.A good battery will keep turning the engine over quickly giving it a chance to fire if everything is in order.Will take a good while turning over to get some fuel through as you have stripped everything for the rebuild.

i think that the battery is bad or take a good look to your battery + cable on the starter or the ground cable from engine to chassis
burn the lights in your dashboard when you turn on the key?
i would also disconnect the fuel pump and start a while until the engine has oil pressure

Potential reasons why your AAN/ABY/ADU won't start

When i turn the key it only click's once and thats it.
Any ideas guys?

Sorry but with that limited amount of info and all the things you might have done (or not done) putting your car back together (kudos for doing that crazy amount of work just for a paint job), it is difficult for us to tell you exactly what your problem is. As a result, I have to repost this link (posted several times before) and you will have to go through it all until you finally figure out what it is/was:

Good luck (I presume you saw the fuel line post I did this AM and you got the fuel lines reconnected properly).

Restarting a C4 UrS that has been sitting for an extended period

As others have suggested, you definitely need a fully charged battery. If the battery is too weak to get the engine to 13 RPM during cranking, the ECU will not energize the AAN fuel pump relay and your engine will never start.

I just did a bit of a pre-start procedure that might help you:

Marko,
if you're sure you already connected wires and
ground strapped on engine.this also happened to mine when
i replaced the engine couple months ago.the car has been
parking for almost 2 months.the starter get stuck so i decided
to hammer on the starter then it s back to life again.
this s what old starter always does when you did nt
drive your car for long extend period.

It is possible to connect small wires on the starting motor the wrong way round. btdt

It is between the right side frame rail and the right side engine mount.

It's the black cable that shows in this photo by "ringbearer" between the manifold and the turbo.

I remember some big engine fuse (30A) going on mine many years ago when i was doing some cyl head work and couldnt start the car. I think the fuse under the drivers side dash (RHD cars).
