You could try gently lifting the connector post, it can drop a bit so doesn't connect properly!
Is the light on the button lighting up when you press it?

Thanks for your quick response Karma, it is an automatic, no button.

Biba, so sorry I can't help you, but maybe Macca can?

Biba if it's an auto battery it sounds like you've damaged the air-operated auto switch. Try gently blowing down the centre hole from the top, and see if it will fire after that?

There's electronics inside it and it could be anything from a disconnected wire to a defunct circuit board or displaced auto switch. I haven't got enough experience repairing these kind of batteries to be able to remotely diagnose. I have replied to your PM.
