You will need to have the electronic engine control module scanned for fault codes, there will be a code even if thelight is not on.

The crank sensor or Timing belt are two common problems with this car that can cause this. Goodluck

SOURCE: I was going to start

Hello, The first thing we need to is see what fault codes are setting. With the doors closed cycle the key from off to on three times ending with it on and watch the digital odometer display. Don't crank the engine, just off to on. The codes start with a P and have four numbers, there may be more than one stored. Write down any that you see and post them here.
Here is a short video of the procedure to retrive codes.

Ok, check the following below--

1. Check the Ignition control Module for its operational value. it may be damaged.

2. Check the coils.
3. Check the plugs and wires.
4. Check the ECM/PCM/ECU(All represent the same device that is commonly known as the engine control computer)

Check these areas thoroughly for faults. I would also advise to replace the fuel filter and fuel pump as well.

2010 Chrysler Sebring Limited won't start?

The flashing bolt is the issue. You need a mobile auto electrician with a pro grade scan tool computer.

https://www.google.com/search?q=mobile+auto+electrician+near+me

The lightning bolt warning light alerts you to a fault in the electronic throttle control system in your vehicle. This may be a faulty throttle body, the throttle body sensor or possibly the throttle body control motor which is what controls the opening and closing of the throttle body as the motor requires more fuel.

2007 chrysler sebring will start but cuts off

Do you have a check engine light on ? Common problem with Chrysler is the crank sensor, won way to check is with a scanner, connect to dlc, and goin to live data stream and watch your rpm if you have no signal while cranking that's your problem,another possible cause could be your anti theft system , is your security light blinking ,staying on or not coming on at all?

No starter sound, usually in a.m. battery strong. 2007 Chrysler Sebring 4 cyl.

If you have a good battery but your car won't turn over there are two things that it could be. The first thing it could be is your starter motor. If the starter is going bad then it simply won't crank. Now if you find that your starter is also good then the problem is most likely going to be your ignition switch that is bad. If you have any more questions please feel free to ask. I hope this helps you out.

Sebring 2007 problems with the Electronic Thottle Control (ETC) Light flashes at dash panel car doesn't accelerates and goes to 20mph.

Had the same problem. Would be driving down the road and the red lightning bolt light would go on. Unable to accelerate and car started jerking. Would have to pull over and turn car off then turn back on to buy some more time. Needed to replace the Throttle Position Sensor, but you can't get that part by itself. You have to replace the Throttle Body.

My electronic throttle control warning light came on what is wrong with my 2007 Sebring?

I have an 08 Sebring and mine has been having the etc light come on and the car will stall..with little to no notice. It's at the dealer right now and they can't figure out what is causing this because the light doesn't stay on once you turn off the car and restart it. It's kind of relieving to me that someone else is having this problem. Hopefully Chrysler can figure out what the deal is with this!!
