i would be checking the power feed to the ecu. check the fuses and relays.

I'd also check the battery voltage. Try jumping off another battery that has a CCA of 550 or more.

Check the main earths and relays.

Thanks for all the help
The reason the car would not start was because ants (called Singapore ants) had got into the relays and made a nest in two,I live in the Kimberleys at the moment and have been told by the locals that this happens often.
I was lucky they did not get to the ECU etc,so please be aware when traveling in the Kimberley
