Can be a number of things but I did have one once that had a broken wire in a connector block on top of the gearbox - thick red wire.

Tried bashing the top of the dash in case its an instrument cluster fault?

Have the fault codes read from engine and transmission.
That will give you at least an indication where or what the problem is.
