If it is, i'm stuck at this place and like to know how can I get it started? Do I have to let it cool or what?

Wait a bit and try to start it again; that's all you can do if the crank sensor fails; then get it replaced asap so you don't get stuck again. You'll need to replace the water pump too as it most likely leaks and most likely caused the sensor to fail by leaking on it.

Do you work on your own cars? It can be somewhat labor intensive to replace that sensor. The crank pulley has to come off to get to it. With the proper tools, it's hot a horrible job, but it's very time consuming if you haven't done it before.
