Help. Lost power and currently stuck.

Any suggestions:

Currently broken down and waiting for AA having been recovered offf
M25 after two hours freezing. Car just lost power and cruised to a stop on hard shoulder.

Wondering if this is something like fuel starvation as seems to not be turning on starter motor. Could be frozen? It is -5 outside??? Fuel burning heater was struggling to fire after we just put a can of diesel in it so wondered if fuel was struggling in pipe to get through???
Or is there something like an immobiliser that cut in?
We did have the airbag light on ten mins before fault but a power on off and that cleared it.

Anyway let's hope AA have some ideas.

Sad Pete

All looks solid, well greased and no electrical issues apparent. Just not firing on turnover. Sad
