Injection Fault And Car Won't Start....

Car  C3 Picasso Beast
Tried getting a bit of info on this in the faults section but no one even replied!!

Basically the car won't start and the electrical fault/ignition fault light is on (the one with the heartbeat line..). First time it did it last week I tried it again later that day and it started first time?? Since then I've tried starting the car 4-5 times on different days and it won't start! Battery has plenty of life in it so nothing to do with that. When I tried the built in fault finding mode it was showing a t which is an injection fault if what I've read is true??? If it's of any help previously on a couple of occasions while the car was working when sitting in traffic the engine management light had come on and kept flashing until I got moving again when it went off.

Any help at all appreciated before I resort to upgrading the RAC and calling them out!

Thanks
 
When you say the car won't start, does the engine turn over and not fire? Does the immobiliser light go out as normal?
 
Does it attempt to start? If not, try wires to starter! Had similar problem myself!
 
Get the fault codes read, If it happens again try wiggling the TDC sensor connection,if it starts once you've done that buy a new TDC sensor and connector.
