It is most likely one of the sensors that helps control the fuel system. If things don't read right, it won't allow fuel to pump as a safety precaution. From what I've heard the most likely sensor to fail is the Crankshaft Position Sensor.

Here's a picture of where it's located on the 1.5; maybe the 1.3 is similar:
