It ran a bit deep sounding for a few days then engine management light came on and check injection....the next morning it wouldn’t start just turning over without a spark....the next time I’ve tried after swapping a few bits that could be the cause it’s now coming up with the seat belt alarm and oil pressure fault and brake fault coming up I looked at codes and replaced code errir parts and still nothing....tried easy start and it does not even start so I’m out of options the injectors are rusty and a puddle of water was arriving the base of them

If it won't run on easy start, then it sounds like something mechanical.
Checking the timing belt is all right would be my starting point.

Yes I’ve changed crank sensor cam sensor glow relay and numerous other parts from a starting van....I’m getting fuel when I loosen a injector connection but it dribbles our should it be spraying under high pressure .... anyway when I got dash oil pressure fault and brake fault I got these codes below

You're unlikely to fix it by playing swaptronics. You need a good code reader on it like a Tech2 or Opcom and possibly a multi-channel 'scope if you're having camshaft position errors. But those codes may all be red herrings. By the way, it's dangerous to undo the injector unions on common rail diesel engines.30,000psi jet of diesel penetrating your skin won't be fun.

To get more help here you'll need to say exactly what engine code it is (read the white label on timing cover).

Hello
Ive finally got a chance to get back to trying to fix my van
I found 8 broken rocker arms
I removed the head to clean and test for valve damage and all ok
ive timed it with specific gig all good
im getting compression
ive swapped out from my working van parts to see if any change but none
tried starting and still not friring but wants to go
I’m not getting any fuel pressure
I’m thinking electrical problem somewhere can anyone help with a few tests or any pointers please

Nothing is gointo run on that.
