Default Won't Start part2

Well I backed the car out of the garage around 11:00 AM and did a little clening. Went to pull it back in and I hit the gas pedal. I didn't move it much maybe an inch. Well it wouldn't start. I left it sit four hours and still, no start

Hey Rick,
Does it have any error/problem codes stored/listed in the DIC?

Not quite sure if I read them right, but the only codes I believe had an H after them, which if I understand correctly, is no longer an issue.

Rick, remember, your car is fuel-injected so you dont have to even look at the gas pedal.

I understand that, habits are hard to break. Besides, FI shouldn't flood.

If it turns over and does not start it's either not getting gas or spark. If it happen intermittently it's usually an electrical/spark issue. I just had to replace the fuel pump on my C4. I'm not an auto mechanic but I try to fix what I can. Sometimes working on cars can be a big pain.

Rick, you're not trying to start it with the wrong hand are you?

Have I heard that before...
Well at 8:30 I tried the remote start, holding it in my opposite hand and she fired right up like there was never a problem
