Thanks for the help everyone, will do some more tests on the weekend and may as well replace the cas again and see what happens.

My honest thoughts gotta be the cas as multi meter telling me it has power and a good earth but no signal reading coming from it when rotating the engine.

Have you checked the cas plug, male & female?

I've used a multi meter and tested from the plug up to the dfi harness and ok will have another look at the sensor on the weekend.

Gee

The problem has been solved, thanks everyone for the responses and recommendations it was a massive help and is greatly appreciated.

Decided to take a closer look at the dfi plug, only on close inspection you could see a couple of the terminals were jammed all the way open providing little if any clamp on the male prongs. Slowly bent all of them closed again and she started up.

I think in the process of diagnosing the initial issue we created this one. So glad it is fixed.

Thanks again everyone
