Default Audi A6 Allroads not starting, cranking but not firing

I replaced Coolant Temperature Sensor , fan sensor just yeasterday.
In the morning I started the car and it was alright
but after about 3 hours, I came to start again and it refused,
we thought it was fuel, so we added fuel but did not help

Thought it was battery, but the battery is less than 3 months old, the volt is at 12v, however when you start it, it falls to the second last bar, but comes up to the middle when you stop. (Tried using another battery because we thought it had discharged but no success)

When replacing the fan sensor yeasterday, the pipe came off and a bit of coolant was sprinkled on engine, however it continued to start several times yesterday and even today morning without any issues.

Default Found it

I found it by God's grace!
I read somewhere that fuse no.29 could be the culprit, so I pulled it out, didn't seem to have any issues, but decided to swap with another 30 amp anyway, after disconnecting the battery,
I put back the battery, then put the key on on position,
The first thing I heard for nearly 4 seconds was a happy fuel pump, adjusting itself, turned the ignition on and whalla!!!! came on first time.

Hope it encourages someone
