If you look at the start circuit a speedo sensor will not produce results like that.
Let’s not guess at stuff because you will replace the car bit by bit until you have a new car.
Get all connections cleaned. Dont just look at them. Get them undone and cleaned as mentioned earlier and then snugged back up.
Already looking at spending money on a battery. What if doing something that costs only some of your time and a $25 can of CO Contact cleaner fixes it. You find a major cable with corroded terminal or an earth bolt connected to a harness earth showing minor corrosion. There’s your gremlin.
To solve this without parts swapping will require some mad skills with the picoscope (or oscilloscope.) You will also need a bidirectional scan tool, which I suspect might be able to see a few things already.
You also need to download the VZ factory manual from links posted here in order to better understand the car.
This is a computer network. Seeing wave form data on starting from various inputs will start the long process of finding what is playing up.
I know what needs to be done but have training wheels when it comes to it. It’s really hard stuff.
