Stuart,
I would suggest completely disconnecting the battery for a few minutes - and then re-connecting - this should reset the ecu, which may help.
Good luck

if that doesn`t work check the wire`s on the Hall that u fitted and might be worth unpluging the 2 wire looms to the ECM and then reconect. Possible u`ve got a lose conection
