93 RRC LWB - Wont Start - Land Rovers Only

To top off an already crappy day, get home from the train and jump in the truck and it won't turn over. Battery is fully charged. Turn the key and lights on dash turn on, but wont turn over. Played with the shifter to make sure it was in park, even tried starting in neutral..... Nothing abnormal leading up to it. Any throughts?

Much oblidged.

when you turn the key, do you see the warning lamps on the dash come on? (oil, temp, Check engine, etc.)
I had the exact same thing happen and it turned out to be a fusible link in the engine compartment.

Does anything work?
I had ignition switch problems one lovely morning after I stopped at the 7-Eleven. Make sure the back of the ignition switch with the electrical bits is fitted to the lock mechanism. I've had mine fail twice in 6 years.

Turns out that one of the leads to the starter solenoid had popped off. Who would have thunk. Plugged it back in and turned right on.
