try putting the old 1 back in check around the sensor making sure every thing is secure, p.s does it turn over?

first make sure you have a fully charged battrery..
check the fuel filter and pipes for leaks!! could just be air present!! if all ok then check all outputs from ecu. if all ok then check for fuel delivery at the injector. if fuel is present then the reprograming of the injectors is required to reset the ecu and immobilizer. if it still wont go after all that then there may be a trigger fault with the crankshaft position sensor. hope this helps!!

Hi guys

Had a problem on Sunday, never had a misfire or problem with timing before. All of a sudden car wouldn't start.

Usual coil light goin out on ignition then after 3 or 4 seconds on no start flashing.

Put on computer in Ford next day and the cam sensor fault came up. Upgraded sensor put in, still no start, though engine will wind. Same fault is still on the computer. Also had brain removed and tried in another Mondeo, which started fine so it doesn't appear to be the brain.

Pump is fine and cam is turning, and as yet no problems with wiring that Ford can find. Injectors are also fine as fuel pressure is ok. Crank sensor is also good. RPM also ok.

Any help or suggestions very welcome. PLEASE HELP!!
