MICRA 1997 P REG.1.0L. ENGINE FAILS TO START?

MICRA 1.0 LITRE 1997 P REG
WHEN TURNING ON IGNITION AND BEFORE STARTING, YELLOW CHECK LIGHT FLASHES ON DASHBOARD.
WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START IT THE ENGINE JUST TURNS OVER BUT WONT FIRE.
WAS ADVISED TO PUT KEY IN IGNITION AND TURN IT TILL LIGHT FLASHES THEN DISCONNECT NEGATIVE BATTERY LEAD FOR 15/20 MINS THEN RECONNECT AND TRY AGAIN.
THIS DID WORK INITIALLY BUT HAS NOW FAILED ALL TOGETHER.
ANYONE OUT THERE ENCOUNTERED A SIMILAR PROBLEM AND IF SO HOW DID YOU RECTIFY IT

*after 2 second's indicator's will flash twice
*programming mode activated for 2 minutes.
*press & hold unlock button
*press lock button 3 time's.
*release unlock button.
*Indicator's will flash once to confirm correct programming
*repeat this procedure to program the remaining key remote control's
*After fourth key is programmed,indicator'sflash 3 time'sto confirm correct programming.
