strange any advice?
ok so the body has been off belts changed new brake pipes front to rear new top wishbones on the back all back together turns over wont start
remove battery unplug the 3 plugs out of the ecu cant see anything so put it back together battery on turn the key and it bursts into life
so check for leaks and a bit of a leak round one of the injector pipes so switch it off remove pipe check ends and put back together turn the key turns over wont start
try bleeding the fuel
still wont start
so remove the battery and unplug the ecu put back together and it starts

You may need to read the diagnostic codes. Sounds like a cable / connector has not gone back correctly.
As a long shot you could try using a spare key, but dtc's should point the way!yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ

It has thrown up loads of faults might have to go throw all the plugs

Ok so now it won’t start at all and the code is p0341-00(64) cam
Position sensor A circuit range/performance

Check the timing belt and oil pump tensioner before going any further!! It may just be the cam sensor but check anyway as if you have a failed tensioner the engine will suffer catastrophic damage.yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ

Just done the belts but had them off to check and all fine
Question is will the sensor stop it from firing when I first put it together it wouldn’t start then after unplugging the ecu it started and ran fine turned it off then it wouldn’t start left it over night
Started ran fine drove it out of garage and round the yard fine tuned it off wouldn’t start
Left it outside where it was for the weekend started first time Monday but now it won’t start at all
So I’m thinking it’s gone altogether but it never once put up the mil light so say engine was faulty

The MIL only illuminates if there is a fault which compromises emissions, but then only after a couple of complete cycles in order to confirm. The cam sensor is not a common fault on these which is why I suggested checking the belts. That said it does have an influence on firing the injectors, so if faulty there's strong possibility of no start.
Its not a big outlay to replace, but can I ask what diagnostic tool are you using?yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ

If that's the only fault and you are satisfied there is no issue re the timing, a new cam sensor can be had from about £35 to £90 depending on if you go Britpart or genuine LR.yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ

Just one, and yes on pass side.yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ
