I parked the car after a journey but when l tried to start it is just cranking without starting. Fuel is enough but it has no spark.

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.com.

The most common cause on today's cars for loss of spark is the crankshaft position sensor. Here is a link that describes symptoms. Additionally, the second link shows in general how one is replaced.

Let me know if that is helpful or if you have other questions.

Take care,
