Possibily the engine speed sensor,but you really need a fault code read

Check fuses 10 and 29 and if you have an after market radio,removed the contact.

Then the next step is to see if there is power to the ECU

remove the 80pin connector on the ECU and check for ignition power on terminal 1 and battery power on terminal 3

the car wont let me acces anything via obd plug. ecu appears to be working as i am getting a signal to other components i.e crank sensor from ecu
