Need more info. Does the fuel pump prime? starter turn? all electricals appear to work?

Have you done any troubleshooting e.g. check for spark & fuel or ?

Sometimes an ecu fault will keep the car from starting on it's own even if all the systems check out. See if you can jump start the car, if you can, then see if you can start it again on its own. It could be a ecu fault if it only starts with a jump start

That's weird. I have the same type of scanner (brand). And it won't let me erase the codes until car is on but not running.
