Good day guys, Hope you guys are doing good. I am currently working on Skoda 2011 octavia 1.6. It just won't start for up to a week when it starts electromechanical steering red light and engine oil red comes on , car doesn't function well. So scanned and it showed P0864 code, I am thinking of changing the brainbox or simply working on the pointers for the code. Your guidance please ?

The scanned code P0864, will it clear when the car runs?
Have you looked up what this code relates to?
Things to check: Fuel, battery, fuses, earth connections.

P0864 Fault Symptoms :
Check engine light comes on Engine stalling or misfiring Engine performance issues Car not starting If one of these reasons for P0864 code is occuring now you should check P0864 repair processes. Now don't ask yourself; What should you do with P0864 code ? The solution is here : Skoda Octavia P0864 Possible Solution :
The crankshaft sensor signals the fuel injection computer or the ignition control when the cylinders are firing. This causes the ignition coil to provide a spark and the injector to inject fuel into each cylinder at the right time.If either sensor isn't working correctly, the car will run rough and the engine will be less efficient. In later car models, the car's computer can usually keep the vehicle running, but the engine warning light on the dashboard goes on to warn the driver.

Check all of the above - but stay with the basics. Do not be tempted to start changing ECU's for something that is clearly not an ECU fault. It is collequially known as "Parts Darts" or "Parts Cannon", and that is all it is!
As mentioned above, keep it simple; good powers, good grounds, good engine harnessing.
Confirm that the battery and all of its connections to the main fusebox are 100% fine, then use some simple techniques to give you guidance: When you crank, does the rev-counter move? That is the sort of thing to give you some direction on the repair you need. The two red lamps you have might not be relevant, but you need to eliminate them - hence check your battery supplies to the engine.
If you were going to put money on this one, first place would be to confirm the main ground terminals all the way from the battery -ve post to the engine block, and then a decent signal-ground from ECU to engine sensors. It's a VW (by any other name) so it is going to have, ermmm, how would you phrase it?, "ambitious earth-lead design".
