Not sure if it will be the crank position sensor, think that has something to do with the others not working.

Not 100% though, sorry.

Quite possibly the earth,this happened on my saff iirc.

Got the AA out and found it, could give them a ring to say it has broken down.

Give the ecu a good mess with too., i.e. unplug it a few times .

hope you sort it.

turn ignition on, connect a small wire from the +12v side of the battery to the +12v side of the coil, and then crank it over
If it runs you have a relay or fuse gone down on the ignition switch side of the ecu or your alarm is playing silly buggers

ok mate, not sure where it would be? i think on the cossie it might be in the boot under the spare wheel, if not in one of the foot wells behind the trim, drivers side i think
could be a burnt out rotor arm for the spark, or wanked coil/lead or wires to it?
