I assigned the value 18 to the variable "years", then when I move on to the next task it isn't loading in.

That's all.

Your syntax is perfect (obviously). It could be the session/request isn't completing. Your internet connection may have been temporarily slow enough to cause a problem with the current session/request data. I would close the current browser tab or restart the browser altogether then reload it again and start the exercise over.
