My pilot light is not relighting ?

I have a Thorn Olympic Gas Boiler and the pilot light will not relight now.There isn't even a spark! Any suggestions?

I believe the olympic is a manual ignition for the pilot.If you cant see a spark,check the wire hasnt come off of the push button ignitor.If thats ok im afraid the case will have to come off to see whats the problem.The Olympic has a very large case so it is easy to put it back on incorrectly so if you do take it off be careful.It could be a t/couple problem which will need a Corgi engineer anyway.
