Default 1999 xkr no start

Hi all,
my 1999 xkr convertible wont start. It stumbles a little but wont fire. The code im getting is B1232 inclination sensor self check fail. Would this prevent the car starting? was running before xmas but has failed to start since. Ive done a search but there isnt much imformation on this item. Many thanks in advance.

Sounds like it may be what Simon at Projects In The Barn just dealt with, watch this

Spot on thanks. I have watched it, when i looked in my car i couldnt see it! I have now discovered it is a different version so will try a replacement. Ironically my car is up in the air the same as simons , so i might drop it on the floor first.
