Default Weird Problem at startup

Hello guys, I need some help with my girlfriends B7. The car currently has about 45k miles on it. When I turn on the ignition, instead of all the lights lighting up, only airbag ESP, and ABS lights light up, and then ABS light goes off. When I try to start the car, it just feels like its choking and once it starts it dies right away. The funny thing is that the car just feels dead. When it start the RPM gauge doesnt even go up. The Computer in the middle doesnt light up.

I plugged in the regular computer from autozone to check for codes, and surprisingly none came up. The car does have an open recall for coils. Could that be the problem? I've never seen anything like this before.

All the help is appreciated.

Thanks

It should run with a bad coil. Just run like ***. Is it out of warranty? Still under 50K.
