    as far as i know there isn't one apart from the one that shuts the fuel of if it overturns,why do you want a shut off tap anyway ?
    If all else fails........read the instructions !

                rick not to sure on reseting it as i have not needed to look into it get a multi meter and test that theirs power getting to the starter motor when you put the ignition on,a few years ago i had a similar problem on a t-5 got in turned the key nothing dash lights all on not a click from the engine had it checked it was an imobiliser fault, ended up getting a mate to bypass and put a push button start in my car which was better than i thought ,even though your ignition lights come on you still have to have power from the ignition to the starter, to kick it over this is worth at least a check

                      It was the fuse for the engine under the bonnet.The break in the fuse was that small you couldnt see it till you stripped the see through cover off it.i just soldered it for now till i get a replacement for it.it was the bulky looking fuse
