Glad you got it sorted! The funny thing is this has happened a number of times. And always after pulling in, turning off the ignition and restarting it comes back to life (though slightly longer to start than normal). Never smelled anything burning either.
I'll try the sensor first and see from there.
Many thanks for the comment much appreciated

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

The crank sensor has to be very close to the crank, on the M13 it is behind the alternator pointing at the front of the crankshaft from the side.
If your sensor was near the top of the engine on the front cover then it was the camshaft sensor, when this fails the engine usually keeps going but sets an error code.
