my 2006 lancer is still Cranks yet unable to start. Do you know if this car got an Inertial switch that got tripped and prevents starting?

Or could it be the fuel pump? if it is what signs should i look for towards working or dead pump.
Any support will be greatly appreciated.

try resetting your security system if no manual look online. if still not starting then check fuses under hood scan for codes and check fuel pressure.

The car is able to start Now, Stupid pump location, pump was not getting fuel due to angle car was parked, all the fuel had left the side the pump sits which had no suction. now the issue is, the idle looks normal and cus off when the accelerator is released.
