Problem starting after cleaning the engine

Car won't start
Please advise. I have cleaned the engine with a product and then with a vape. After about 2 hours I started the engine and lightly pressed the accelerator. The check engine light came on and the car died. It hasn't started since. The starter spins, but the engine won't start. I used a little diagnostics that point to a problem with the speed sensor and the controller directives. Does anyone have experience with a similar problem or advice on how to proceed?

Check the connections and wiring around the speed sensor and ensure they are dry and secure. Moisture from cleaning might have affected them. If the issue persists, consider replacing the speed sensor. Let me know how it goes or if you have further questions.
