crank sensor mate.
Also listen to the ecu when you try to start it it should click, if not you might have lost the live to it

What loom have you got mate? If you've got a cav gsi loom then next to the dizzy you should have a thin black wire that used to have a 1 pin plug on, this is the switched live for the ecu. Make sure it's connected.
