W204 wont turn on or lock or unlock. Completely dead

Wednesday i had trouble locking my doors, i kept pushing and it finally lock, then on friday samething. Saturday moring everything work finally. Went home after and samething i couldnt lock my doors, so i said it probably the fob battery, i will change after i get dress. Change the battery went out to my car and nothing, no lock, no unlock, trunk wont open, so i get in the car and tried to start it nothing worked. No instrument lights, no cranking, i mean nothing, completely dead. Must be the battery. I had it checked and it wasnt. I rock the steering wheel back and forth and nothing. Can the key fob cause these problems if ot loses it frequency.. help me anyone

If the battery is in good order, it makes me think fuse(s). The only problem with that is that the issue seemed to start slowly and progress. Is absolutely everything electronic dead or can you hear the ESL unlock when you place the key in the ignition? Are your battery terminals in good shape and tight?

Battery terminals are tight and good. Nothing happens when you put the fob in the ignition
