BR V starting issue

My 2018 Honda BR-V diesel isn't starting. It's got 231200 km on the clock. Sometimes it cranks but won't catch, other times it starts then dies immediately. And when it does run, it's rough. Dashboard lights flicker. I've checked the battery, which seems fine. Could it be the ignition switch, a dodgy ignition coil, or a fuse problem? Any ideas before I spend too much?

Sounds familiar. I had a similar issue with my BR-V. Does the dashboard light dim when trying to start? For me, it was a faulty fuse.

Dashboard lights do dim when I try to start! Which fuse was it for you? Where is it located?

Can't recall exactly which fuse, sorry. It's been a while. I'd suggest taking it to a workshop, but mention the fuse to them. Could save you money.

It was indeed a faulty fuse. Cost me 52€. Appreciate your help!
