One of the two pointers is just a marker - you can move it with your fingers. Ignore that one. Anyway, your pressure looks OK. This boiler does not have a pilot light. You need to look at the fault finding guide in the manual really. Is the electrical supply to the boiler switched on? Is the standby indicator alight? What exactly did you do when you removed the radiator?
There's an overheat stat reset button. If you lift off the front cover, you'll see this little red? button on top of the control panel. Just press it firmly in and see if it resets.

HI MATE.
IF YOU TAKE THE FRONT OFF. TURN POWER OFF ON THE WALL.
PUT THE CENTRAL HEATING/HOT WATER SWITCH TO THE MIDDLE.
TURN THE TEMPERATURE DIAL TO THE MAXIMUM.
IF YOU LOOK AT YOUR BOILER YOU WILL SEE AT THE BASE STICKING UP ON THE FRONT A BUTTON (ON MINE IT'S BROWN).
TURN THE POWER BACK ON AND PRESS THE CENTRAL HEATING/HOT WATER SWITCH DOWN TO ON.
THEN PRESS DOWN THE BUTTON, KEEPING YOUR FINGER ON. EVENTUALLY IT SHOULD FIRE UP.
ONCE IT'S ON MAKE SURE YOU RESET YOUR TEMPERATURE DIAL TO A MANAGABLE LEVEL AND YOU SHOULD BE SORTED.
HOPE THIS HELPS.
