Thanks for the input guys, but both items have been checked and are perfect. The ignition switch has been replaced for a brand new one and the battery was tested and is in perfect condition.
What I forgot to mention is that we tried to start it by towing it. In this we by-pass the starter, but it still wouldn't run. So I am 100% sure it isn't either of these things since it would have started then when we towed it. The DME cuts out the ignition and injection.

Any other ideas?
