Make sure the seat switch is activating properly and that the parking brake is set. Verify whether or not it has an Engine shut down system and if so is there something there. Finally after you do all that and you are still stymied, call the authorized dealer who can probably help you out.

First thing I would check is all the fuses and relays.....check to see if your getting voltage to the start terminal on the starter.
