looking for some help.

Hey ppl im a new b on this forum. Im looking for some help with my 2003 E500 w211. Ive been experiencing a problem with my car and dont know whats wrong. Two days ago i get home i parked her two days later i go to move her for sanitation and she didnt start. I put the key in the ignition she cranked but didnt fire up. Funny thing is everything else is working lights, radio, window, power everything. First i thought maybe it was the alternator but she cranking but not starting. Then i thought maybe the starter or the fuel pump wasnt distributing fuel. At this point i dont know where else to look or what else to think. Does any one have any idea what it could be or have any opinions on what i should do or look for? I really need some help any info will be appreciated.

Could be crank position sensor. Check the codes with a scanner and report back. We'll be able to better determine the cause.

Really? Well i didnt get any code till now. I noticed it says on the dash somethin about malfunction consumer electrical switched off. I looked it up and it talks about the main battery and alternator. But the main battery is new and i checked them both and there fine also the alternator is cranking. But im gonna look in to what u said about the crank position sensor

Your battery is probably low voltage after cranking giving the warning. The Most probable cause for no start is CPS. Pull codes,, change CPS,, charge battery.
