The Vito W447 fails to start following a collision.

I sustained an accident in my 2015 Vito W447. The battery is functional, but when I attempt to start the vehicle, it does not engage; only the ignition lights illuminate. I have replaced the pyro fuse. Has anyone encountered a similar issue? Should the vehicle start with the airbag lights illuminated?

As far as I am aware The engine can initiate operation with the airbag indicators illuminated.
It must be connected to diagnostics to eliminate conjecture.

Is there an inertia switch in the Vito?

The vehicle fails to crank entirely; I am enquiring whether the fuel cut-off switch would allow it to crank or not.

Hello everyone, I have resolved the issue; it was a fuse in the engine compartment.
