2009 W204 no ignition, electrical issue
hi guys, I need some help
my battery died after leaving it for a month, when i tried to start a bunch of lights came on, so i left it.
the next time i tried boost and I may have boosted while leaving the key in the ignition, I can't recall
anyways, the car is dead after that. no lights, no power, does not respond to key unlock or lock
any ideas guys? i dont want to toe this to dealership, its going to cost more than the car.

now car battery is good
does not respond to key press, doors do not unlock
car does not start, no dash lights or any display, but steering wheel unlocks when key inserted, i hear the servo unlock
fuses ok
interior lights do not light
battery currently disconnected, when connected alarm goes off, since door had to be opened manually
any ideas guys? i dont want to toe this to dealership, its going to cost more than the car.

When you say "now car battery is good" do you mean you bought a new battery? Or just charged the old one? If it is the latter you may want to first buy a new battery.
As for the alarm, would it turn off if you hit the buttons on the fob?
