Hey guys, we were working on my C and it won't start. There's a lightning bolt on my dash and it turns over but it's like there's no fuel.
Any suggestions?
Sorry about the double posts but we are stuck now!!!

I dunno, were you playing with the ETC? The owners man. informs you of a problem with the ETC system when this light comes on (p.145)

Yes...we extended the wires for the hazard/esp switch but the key was off.
And we haven't even plugged in the switch, just extended the wires.

Does it say how to fix it?

Wes, have you reinstalled your passenger seat yet? We got a code thrown (airbag) when we reinstalled it. The car is at the dealer to be reset... Too may friggin' sensors and computers on this car.

Not yet...next week. I wonder if you disconnect battery, let it set for awhile, reconnect seat and then put battery term back-on would work? It does on BMW's we work on.
