Problem with MCP3551 and PT100

HI I have a problem with read ADC from MCP3551. MCP is using SPI. I want to use MCP3551 and pt100 to read temperature.

I can't read right values from MCP3551.

Devices is good, because I checked in Atmel Studio

This is my C -code.

include the mbed library with this snippet

#include "mbed.h"
unsigned char dd_zmien_kolejnosc_bitow(char a);
uint8_t LsbMsb( uint8_t data);
uint8_t REVERSE_BITS(uint8_t a);

SPI spi(NC, D12, D13); // mosi(out), miso(in), sclk(clock)
DigitalOut cs(D8); // cs (the chip select signal)
Timer timer;
Serial pc(USBTX, USBRX); // tx, rx ( the usb serial communication )
uint8_t aByte[4],rByte[4],oByte[4];

	cs = 1;
    wait_ms(300);
    // lets just do this forever
    while (1) {




    delta = timer.read_ms()-ends;
    if(delta > 75)
       {
        cs = 0;

       	wait_us(737400);

        aByte[3] = spi.write(0xFF);

Could you help me find a mistakes or might by somebody have good code to read MCP3551.
