The crank sensor fault will always show regardless when the engine is not running.........

If the crank sensor was at fault the engine would still turnover but just not start.

The video shows you either have a fucked starter motor / starter motor relay (or potentially an alarm fault but the sound on your vid sounds like the starter gets power rather than relay noise), seized engine or not enough current to the starter to turn it. Don't think it's a current issue because the lights on your dash don't extinguish.

Have you tried putting the car in 2nd gear and rocking it with the handbrake off, then tried starting again?

Can someone help.

I have a corsa b 1.0 that was converted about 5 years ago to a 1.6 sport but never got used I would of jump started it every few months and it ticked over and lived in my garage. Due to the good weather I went to start it the other day try to jump it and there was electrics in the car etc but when I turned the key it was just a click.

Went and bought a brand new battery and £20 of fuel and still doing the same thing. Put it on opcom and it came back with 2 faults P0335 - Crank Sensor & P1640 - Quad Driver Module not present.

I have taken a short video to show this if anyone can help me out as its never let me down or wanted any parts.
