Hello.
I don't believe all these sensors have gone bad at the same time ? ... I believe you either have a short to earth on the PCM (computer ECU) or you have a bad PCM and it needs replacing ..check your live feed and earth at the PCM or replace the PCM
hope this helps

Thanks for your reply but forgot to mention the light only comes on when the engine gets to temperature and the idle goes down to 500/600 rpm I think myself it may be the coolant temp sensor does that help in any way
