what year is the car?
From the description and code I would say it is key communication error.. are you using the spare key or have you tried the spare key?
Is the key light on the dash going out?

im using the original key and i dont have any spare keys other then the original 1 the keylight is going off aswel?
was driving the car about then stopped off at tesco, then went back to the car then tried to start it, it turned over for about a second, started then cut out then it wouldnt start at all, the AA guy checked the spark plug and fuel and said there was both but it wouldnt start! so i had to get it towed back, then this morning it tried to start it and it started 1st time but still showed the engine checklight so i did a ecu reset with the connectors and now is all fine, is it still worth me going to get it checked out?
