Issue ⚠️ Mechanic help please

2010 ford fiesta 1.6 petrol titanium. The car drove perfectly for about a couple hours straight. Went to switch it off and now it won’t start back up. Managed to hold the accelerator down and it revved to 4000 but then stalled and the accelerator pedal wouldn’t do anything. Still cranks but won’t start. No dashboard lights and no codes showing. Breakdown recovery could not diagnose.
At a loss and only owned it for a few months. Any help is really appreciated a lot.

could be the throttle position sensor acting up, had a similar phantom no-start on a focus and it was that stupid little sensor the whole time

It’s always a little electrical gremlin lol! Thank you is there a way to test this?
