I hope you checked for incidental damage (bent valves, etc.)? If you have and there is nothing obvious, maybe the belt is not installed properly (it's not uncommon to install it with one notch off!). Check to ensure that the valve timing is, in fact, correct. Good luck!

When the timing belt broke you probably bent some valves and may ha one of the valves damage a piston or two. say cyclinder #1 had the intake valve open when the belt broke, the valve would stay open because the cam stopped moving. The piston continued to rise because the crankshaft continued to turn. that is assumed your engine is like most modern engines that are inteference engine. Some engines are ok when the timing belt breaks, but most need cyclinder head repair included with a new timing belt.

If you disconnected the battery you have set the immobilizer to not start but there is good news for you. Look in the owners manual you know that useless book that comes with the car, it will help. As for the timing belt breaking I think you should be doing that compression test as that engine may be a interference engine and the valves are bent.

your timing marks might be dead on thats good but if any sprocket or timing wheel turned or cam or crank shaft moved my mistake not good the belt should of been replaced befour it broke u may have internal problems. if the timing waz off a little the car should run ruff so at least u could start n check with gun a trick to get it to run is to crank it a little stop n then crank a lot this works when belt is so worn n timing is off a little it still runs if it runs find someone with a timing gun to adjust the order

I don't know what you got. As stated elsewhere if you have interference engine you MAY have damaged some valves etc. If this is so the engine would have probably made some noise. If no damage then the timing marks are the other trick. You must make sure #1 cylinder is on tdc COMPRESSION stroke (both valves closed) the timing mark can be in position but on exhaust stroke. Better check it out.

You may have bent some valves if this is possible with this engine design and then again you may not have correctly aligned the cam(s) with the crank sprocket. Both will prevent the engine from starting.

Belt may be installed 180 degrees out of time, or valves may be bent

Theres a chance your engine is an "interference" engine which means it destoys itself when the belt breaks.

U just bent your valves. Those motors arent free spinning.
there is nothing to it now.
