How can I fix my Peugeot 406 GLX 2.1 TD not starting?

Turn on ignition on my Peugeot 406 GLX 2.1 TD, wait for heater plug light to go off, turn ignition on - nothing [doesn't fire]! Had to push it to start!

this model 97-99.... 406 2.1 td is common for starter motor probs...gives indication of flat battery (slow turning) but if battery is ok then its your starter..

Could be a number of things,if you have recently disconnected the battery take the earth lead off again clean it or at least screw it round a bit and fix it tightly,if you haven't taken batt off do it anyway,look first for a bad connection(don't say it SHOULD be ok Do it)your lights etc will come on unless the batt is totally flat but it means diddlysquat when you need the power to turn the engine,cleaning up connections costs Nowt and may well sort it,cold weather does this to cars,if it don't work re list question,don't go looking for big faults.Is your batt good,for sure?
