If the sensors weren't there the car would never have worked in the first place, my question was about you checking the signals. You don't have to use a diagnostics program, you can check their signals with a multi-meter, you can do the same to check the engine loom is still in working condition. Boring and time-consuming, but better that than splash out on a new ECU only to find that wasn't the problem.
Which diagnostic software have you been using on the lappy? Are you using a PP2k or a generic reader like one of the £15 ELM327 clones?
Sorry I haven't got back to this in a few days. Think it was universal, was just a local garage a non specialist. So I brought to a Peugeot dealer, they got the same response from the car and are suggesting replacing the ecu. Not worth putting a new one in.

Just reading this again.
Your car worked fine, then you moved it and washed it, then it didn't work fine.
Has water got onto a multi-plug connection and/or blown a fuse somewhere? Maybe leave the car with the bonnet up pointing at the sun... maybe something got wet?
A mate had a van with EDC15C2 (PSA) and it rained hard one night and the next time he went to use it it didn't start, but upon removing his ECU it was quite wet/damp so clearly got water on/in it...
Some HDi's have bags over the ECU, some have it open... not sure if the bag was standard but it makes sense to protect it from water/damp.
Hmmmm, try unplug ECU, spray contact cleaner in there (repels water/damp), then re-plug and see what happens.

Yea thats exactly what happened. No nothing got wet checked it afterwards. My Ecu is covered by the bag, no blown fuses anywhere. Looking for a second-hand one to put in and sees if that works.
