Does the engine light come on when you turn the ignition on as a pre start check?

Ok so the light works lol. I would suggest getting a diagnostic on it rather than shorting pins 1+4. Or you may be shorting the wrong pins :-( Diagnostic reader or a mapper with a tactrix cable and evoscan

An idea might be to disconnect battery for few minutes so it wipes all fault codes on ecu. Then reconnect and drive the car again to see if the fault shows itself. As once you have a fault it stays stored on the ecu even if it clears itself physically. So if you change a faulty sensor for new, the code would stay on the ecu and show up still...
