Default Fiesta 1.4tdci sudden loss of power

I was driving my wife's 1.4 tdci this morning. 70mph in 5th gear, when suddenly it lost a lot of power, and the engine management light started flashing. I pulled over to the hard shoulder. However I then simply turned the engine off and back on again, and It cleared the problem.

It's still running fine now, but obviously I want to find out what caused it to make sure it doesn't happen again.

I checked the dashboard display for dtc codes but it said there were none.

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks
