Just a shot in the dark; have you checked the inertia switch?

Does the oil pressure gauge move when you try to start it? If that gauge stays on ZERO, the "Check gauge" light comes on.
Now, that could be a problem - if you really don't have oil pressure...

yes all the gauges move any other ideas?

fuel pressure?

Which engine?

If if starts and runs briefly then it's probably not the ignition. Have you checked the fuel pressure?
