Hi please can someone help me out l got fiat bravo 51 reg was going to work this morning got to round about the engine just stop went to start it again no good l have no errors come up got petrol you can try to start it just not ingageing the rev counter fluctuates when you try to start it please please can someone help me:cry::cry::cry:
 
no idea what engine you've got,
but failed cambelt is a possibility,

if you remove the oil filer cap can you see valve gear ?

if so put in 2nd gear and rock until the ( bottom half of) engine chugs over, see if the valve train is moving along with it..,

if the engine "chugs" but the top half doesn't move then it'll be a cambelt issue,

No smell of petrol on exhaust and 1.6 -> check crank sensor as it is rather exposed to the elements and is common failure.

Failed crank sensor might not light up the faultlight (I've had that happen)
 
Hi all it was not the crank sensor it was not the cambelt it was just a 50p fuse many thanks to you all thanks again Neil
