2005 CL65 Key Wont Turn

I cant get the 2005 CL65 ket to turn or recognize in the ignition. I put a brand new battery in key fob. It is just telling me to "Do not forget Key" as soon as I open the door and that is the only message I am getting. The car has been sitting for awhile and hooked battery back up and something is not right. Any help would be much appreciated. The car was running and driving fine before it sat for a few months.

Battery in key has no effect on turning in ignition.

Check main battery voltage.

If you have 2 keys, easier to diagnose issue.

Do remote locks work?

We only have 1 key and the remote light is flashing but not unlocking or locking doors. I will have the battery charged and try to start again in the morning. Something else weird is the radio power will come on without the key in the ignition and play without the key and this is not a remote start vehicle as the key needs to start the car. Anyway thanks for the information
