does the van turn over? ive got a 308 CDI and was driving down the road, EDC light came on and engine cut out and wouldnt start. put it on diagnostics and it mentioned fuel cut off. changed the fuel cut off solenoid, but now i cant get it to fire. before going on diagnostics i cracked the nut off the injector rail but it was only dribbling out so it could just have air in the system but its driving me mad hoping that i dont have to replace the pump. check that you have diesel going to the injectors, if not check the solenoid, i picked one up for £20 out the back of autotrader. if thats not the problem does your van have an immobilizer?

could be that, mine did have one but it seems to have been bypassed, could be a common fault on them, not sure. anyway try checking the fuel at the injectors. post back on here when you have tried that :)
