Does your speedo still work?

it did when it last happend, what does its mean if it does or dosnt work

speedo takes its signal from the ABS, so if it's fubar'd your speedo doesn't get a signal hence no speedo.

ive just been out and drove it around the block and the lights were on and the speedo didnt work, i then pulled up and the lights went out and the speedo worked but then it the lights came on again and speedo stopped, does the power steering fluid have anything to do with as i have just checked all the fluids and it seem way too low

Yes, the power steering is speed sensitive and gets its signal from the ABS  ;)

You could always try A N Other ECU, but it has to be from a similar car. But you are taking a risk that the 'new' ECU isn't already goosed or nearly goosed.

Get one from a Breaker (plenty on here) and 2 hours work, you'll have a fully functioning car.  ::)

No.

Andy was saying that the Speed Sensitive part of the Power Steering is linked to the Speed Signal.

Low fluid wont cause your issues.

It's the ECU!

You`ve been advised of the fault. Bite the bullet & get it repaired or get shot of it. One of the joys of buying from E-bay

Was looking at your car on the bay but when the "owner" refused to answer every question I asked, decided it was a bit of a lemon
