D400?

SB-400, ok

Good batteries?
Is flash on camera turned off, or set to automatic?

What trouble shooting have you done so far?
Then we can perhaps suggest something that you might have missed. Not mentioned yet is clean contacts and does the flash fire when flash test button is pressed? Verifying the flash is operating.

Is the unit pushed far enough forward on the hot shoe?

Check that the ready light on the back of the flash is on. Also, has the flash been unused for a long time? The manual for my Nikon SB-700 flash states that the flash should be fired a few times every month to refresh the capacitor. Apparently, it's possible that the capacitor will not fully charge if the flash has been unused for a long time.

Carl is back with his usual cryptic post and even more cryptic responses. He seems to have finally lost the “……… message ends” bit.

This is cryptic. I thought you were talking about your SB-400.
