If engine is turning over o.k you will have to start at checking whether you are getting a spark and fuel .

Thanks for taking time to reply ,Car had been running fine and started many times in 2 days after taking switch off but wouldn't start after taking fuses out and replaced in correct position wondered if I've ccaused it by taking out fuses

As already suggested , you will have to do the basics and check whether getting spark and fuel . Crank sensor can cause non start , but many possible causes .Without checking out , just guessing .
