2002 Volvo V70 D5 Turns over but no start

My 2002 Volvo V70 D5 was working perfectly, then I changed the front drivers side wheel bearing and now it won’t start? One key will turn the ignition on but will not do anything when turned all the way. The other key will turn the ignition on and then turn the engine over when turned all the way bu...

May be an issue with the cluster itself as opposed to the remainder of the car if the car reads the correct data when checking OBD2. That was my next thought, I'll source a new instrument ...
