R350 Does not start

Hello everybody I drove my 2008 R350 until the day before yesterday without any problems.
Yesterday morning when I wanted to start it, the engine was "mute".
The dashboard tells me a fault in the SRS.
I do not know if that will be the reason why the car does not want to start.
I have checked the SRS connections under the two front seats and it seems that everything is fine.
I thought it could be the battery but I just installed a new one and nothing has changed, the problem remains the same.
Has anyone had a similar problem?
Any help please.
Thank you very much in advance.

You probably want to post over in the R class/W251 forum , the folks here drive 2 seat convertibles

That said, you're best bet is hooking your R350 up to a STAR diagnostic system to read the stored codes, they'll tell you everything. If you want to avoid the MB dealer, any independent Benz shop will be able to do this.

Some administrator moved the post to this place,
I wrote them that it was wrong but they did not respond to me.
I can't move the car, not even 5 feet, there's no way to put the shifting in neutral.
I have a code reader for M Benz but since the car does not start, it can hardly read anything, there is no communication between the modules
