Probable cause

The separation of the main crank drive pulley from the engine’s accessory section due to three of its securing bolts backing out of their holes, which subsequently resulted in two accessory belts becoming unsecure, both crank sensor plugs becoming dislodged, the ignition source to the engine being interrupted, and the total loss of engine losing total power.
