    i'd suggest that it may be the crank angle sensor, when these die, it's almost impossible for your car to crank over!
    but i would also check your faults code to get a better idea of whats going on...

    forum search for computer error codes, and how to access them!

    if its your CAS, it wont stop it from cranking over, it will turn over but it wont spark. so if it is not turning over it isnt your CAS

    Replace the Battery leads..
