Car stalled and now does not start (crank-OK)

Hey I was driving when all lights went on, including the brake light, the RPMs dropped and steering wheel lost power, the car stalled. Now it cranks just fine, but the engine never fires up. Just cranks and cranks and cranks etc.

What can I do?

Ignition relays, fuel pump, crank sensor?
What are common issues? What should I check first?

BIG THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!!

Any help/input greatly appreciated!

HEy Lord thank you for prompt reply,

you know, when I came back to my car after a while (2hrs) it started up normally.

Is CPS common to work intermittenly like this?

Big thanks,
Alex
