vz sv6 starting problems (starting sometimes)

[lockybud]

hey guys first time poster on this forum.

so i picked up this vz sv6 the other day and its got this starting issue.

when going to start the car im getting these errors on the dash;

very low fuel, fuel gauge error contact dealer, service vehicle soon, srs airbag fault (it has vx seats in it and thats the cause of the srs fault i was told) when turning key nothing at all no click sound,

so to start the car i have to:
step
1: turn key one click, so dash light does not come on.
2: remove battery terminal wait a few seconds
3: reattach battery terminal, and repeat disconnecting and reconnecting terminal untill a distintictive sound in the engine bay starts (sounds like a fuel pump im not sure)

Only when it makes this sound from the engine bay will the car start.

would anyone have any idea what could be causing this?

I'd be looking at the battery terminal, make sure they are clean and tight. Then check the earths and the connection the the starter motor.

The SRS fault would be the seats.

The low fuel/fuel gauge error could be the sender unit in the tank.
