31 indicates an in-correct signal.....so henc eits in-conclusive.

Does it start if you apply a small amount of throttle?

Just tried your suggestion of light throttle,also just changed fuel pump relay and checked fuse,still no go,when cranking the eml does go out,is this normal anyway?

Thanks Daz for reply,double checked all connections everything is plugged in and also checked if there're 'home'.Mark,doesn't start at all,only time it did fire up was when i wanted something out of the Omega and needed to get into the boot so i connected jump leads to our other car and thought i'd just try it.It started and i ran it for around 30 mins till she was warm,switched off again,she did restart,tried again following morning and back to square one,don't know if that points to anything

Do any dash lights (Eg the EML) flash when you are cranking the engine?

As an aside, i've seen a couple of non starting V6's be fixed by a new crank sensor, yet there has been no code 19 in the memory..

Hoping that's my problem

I just have fears of doing these things but i just have to brave myself. I was just thinking of changing the crank sensor.

How did you solve yours.

Interesting i have the same vehicle same colour except mine is an Estate.

Not solved mine yet,i got a crank sensor yesterday and if weather stays fine hopefully fit it  today,bit optimistic whether it will cure mine or not as mine didn't show a code 19.
