You have a mechanic who knows zero about the operation of the ECU.

Unless the ECU is happy with what it sees, it won't attempt to start the
engine.  Period.  This is not a simple broken circuit problem.

See Scott Mockry's web pages - http://www.sjmautotechnik.com and check
out the diagnostic procedure for non-starting.
