Default non starting

Cant do a search,keeps saying "Sever Error" so here goes

So the problem is My CDT has run perfectly for the last 6 years,However today driving fine stopped and started several times but now it refuses to start!!
All pumps working fine,fuel coming out of the pipe.So could it be the camshaft sensor?If not what else should I be looking at?

Any suggestions please

Two things to try.(1) take the electrical plug off the top of the ubp and put a smear of Vaseline on the tags on top of the pump, and put the plug back on and pull it off again 2/3 times. (2) could be your camshaft sensor. Had the first one happen to me, so i know it works. Have not had any probs for 3 years since.
