If jumper cables don’t start it then it might be the mass air flow sensor. I just got done fixing this issue with my 14 tC. I took out the back seat first & the fuel pump didn’t get any voltage checking with my multi meter. So I decided to go to Autozone for their loaner program, paid $250 (which they refunded in cash when returning) to borrow a code reader. Found P0113 & P0102 or “Mass Air Flow Circuit Low & intake air temperature circuit high input.” Autozone was going to charge $150 for the part, so I searched it on Amazon & paid $40. First I removed negative terminal on battery (to reset check engine light & make sure no shorts when plugging in the new one), installed new sensor then plugged it in. Then I checked to make sure gas cap was closed right & then re-installed negative terminal on battery. Turned the key & it started right up. Hope this helps cause it was a very disturbing & confusing repair that took me a week to figure out.
