Yes, you need to short out pin 4 to pin 6 of the diag connector in the fuse box below the steering wheel with a paper clip or similar.

Does sound a bit crank sensor, but do as M_DTM says, and do the paperclip test.  If you get a 19, change the crank sensor asap.  They have a habit of really letting you down in inconvenient places....
