After following the instructions on the above PDF file I found the resistance of the cam sensor it was spot on at 310ohms but the crank position sensor didn't put out a thing...
I'll order the new...
Just for anyone with the same hassles, I just found this :D
Haaaandy ;)

I just read that if you bridge pins 15 and 87 that it works... tried it and didn't :/
No landline either mate, sorry.. I'm on with a smart phone..
That narrows it down to cam position sensor,...
I've just moved and there's a man 2 houses away with a v70.. dunno what engine but I'm sure the friendly neighbour routine could get a quick go out of him ;)
I hear you can bypass it altogether by...
I pulled it out and took it apart.. no obvious burnt out bits and it looks fairly new tbh... Also when I turn the key to the on position the fuel pump whirs well enough ... engine temp sensor, crank...
I pulled out the cam sensor that was the problem last time and there is a tiny scrape on the surface of the plastic but not enough of to stop the car running i would have thought (even tho it shows...
Damn bloody car! :@
It got me 300miles away and now the spark comes and goes as it pleases :wallbash:
I've checked the plugs, the leads, the rotor arm, the dizzy cap, and changed the ignition...
I have no idea at all but if something is inside the engine then surely ill get some metal specks or something coming out?
What is the chances of the coil inside the sensor popping and causing...
What could it have been hit by? :/
The engine has smoothed right out now and sounds a treat :D Only thing is when I rev it right up then let the revs drop I can here a weird chattering noise...
Cracked it :D
I took the crank sensor off to find this...

I put a new one in and it fired up straight away :) Idk if it's...
Thanks :) That's very handy to have :D
It says about the flywheel sensor? Is that the crank sensor or is it one I've not heard of yet?
I'm still learning about these cars but they are...
Thanks mate :) I'll give that a try too.
By the time I'm finished ill have a new t5 :D
Thanks for the kind offer :) I'll eliminate the other avenues first but might call on your generous offer if it doesn't work out ;)
Cheers :D
I've ordered a cam and crank sensor and until they arrive I'll check the rest of it over :) I fitted a MBC about 2 weeks before it died.. could that have knackered my injectors? I'm off to check the...
Someone said it could be the crank sensor :) Would the cam sensor cut the spark if it was faulty?
I'll play with both and see what happens :D Thanks :)
I have no idea but I would think not as from the ignition coil to the plugs have been replaced. Surely if the spark made it to the dizzy cap it would make it to the plugs as its all new??...

First thing in the morning now that you mention it http://smileyshack.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/smileyslaughing_lol_hehe_100-102.gif Thanks :D
That's a new one :) Thanks, I'll look into it...
I pressed the nipple on the end of the fuel rail and had someone turn the key :) It gushed out lol
Even if the injectors were knackered there's no spark to ignite the fuel anyway :/
The ECU is still a suspect but I'd rather renew the cheap stuff first :D If I get an ECU ill get one chipped at the same time :) This car will run if it kills me lol
Fuel is coming thru just fine ... No spark at all tho :/ Not even a faint one :P Poo lol
Thanks bud, I'll give it a try :)
Hi everyone :) Nice to be back after so long, I had a few personal problem so have been out of action for months :/
My car has sat for the last few months untouched but now I'm back to health I've...
I've put the ignition on and then tried the button on the fuel rail. How much pressure should the fuel come out with? All I get is a couple of blobs shoot out but I wouldn't say they were coming out...
Ok thanks :) The engine just cut out when I was under full throttle in 4th. My first thought was fuel pump. I shall dig deeper
