wheel sensor - 0
direction - forward

the above is regardless of movement etc

does this mean its installed wrong? is there anything to test etc
The Service Menu is the correct way to test the speed pulse.

The fact that it always shows 0 means that the speed pulse wire is not connected. Check the speed pulse connection.

At the same time, check the other important wire for dead reckoning - the Direction of Travel.

This will show Forwards in all gears apart from reverse. In Reverse, it will show Backwards

If the Direction of Travel is also not working, it indicates that the installer did not connect the Auxiliary Loom, which provides the speed pulse and the reverse signal.
