it means the car is not to get any gas. it may have some number of causes. give more information like kind of car, year, did it happen while driving? did it stop as it has been parked. would not start? without more to go on, know one can say most of anything.

There's a fuel shut off switch on some cars that may be turned off or goes off when there is an accident. based on the car, it may be turned back on from a switch someplace, frequently in the trunk.

The fuel pump relay is bad, or the fuel pump is bad, or the car was bumped hard enough to trip the safety switch. It may be out of gas or the fuel filter plugged up.
