02Reg Ford Focus Just Died Whilst Driving? Pls Help

Hi, Please help i am not technically minded when it comes to cars and have a 02 reg ford focus Zetec with 88k miles on the clock for my sins, it's a 1.8 petrol and for some reason it will not start. Have had it for about 2 months and has always started first time no problem.

I was driving along in 2nd gear when the car just seemed to loose all power and was forced to pull over, when i tried to restart it there was nothing happeneing almost like a clicking sound replaced the turning over sound the dash was lit up like a Christmas tree.

Since then myself and my father inlaw have been trying to establish what the problem is, we have run it through an et97 diagnostic tool which has concluded that there are no fault codes but the car will only turn over and not start. We have manually driven the fly wheel and checked the cambelt, changed the coil pack, checked the fuses and can hear the fuel pump kick in when turning over but still nada?

Also, i think it may be worth me mentioning that recently sometimes the car's speedo when stationary will suddenly shoot up to like 140mph and dance around for a bit at the same time the cars factory fitted stereo will go up and down in volume?

Not sure if related.

If anyone can shed any light on this i would be very grateful as i am not sure what to do next.
