The crank sensor on these is actually on top of the bellhousing directly above the clutch.
Have you checked for power going to the crank sensor at the multi plug ?
Have you checked for a live going to the coil ? and when you turn over the engine do you get a pulsed earth ? (LED is best to check this or oscilloscope) as an ordinary light is too slow to reliably check the earth side for a pulse.
I would be concerned about wires snapping/burning out.
What you really need to do is check the wires from the crank sensor to the ecu multiplug have continuity.
There should be a pink wire and a white one coming from the multi plug of the sensor, these go to terminals 5 & 6 of the ecu so disconnect the big multiplug and check terminals 5 & 6.
Terminal 5 should be the white and obviously 6 should be the pink.

everything alone is working properly, just together and when i turn on the car it cranck and it try to start but there is nothing just like there is no gas going to engine but it is trying to start, and there is no electricity going to plugs .
