2014 E550 Not working correctly after battery died

My 2014 E550 started acting up after battery died and I took both batteries out and fully charged them. After installing them the transmission wont shift out of park, air condition and air condition controls do not work also , stereo , driver. headlight , abs, interior dome lights and wipers are not working now. Also Got a bunch of dash lights that were not on before the battery died. Any idea what could be wrong? Im pretty sure there is a module or modules related to all this.
Thanks in advance

SAFETY LOCK DOWN

Reconnecting both battery power has a proper order and timing.

Now I believe your ISM has triggered its safety lock.

What scanner are you using to work with this car ?

An Autel should help you survey all the faults.
