HELP! 1996 MERCEDES BENZ S320 NOT STARTING AT ALL!

Hi ,
Filled up gas last night and after a while got the check engine light. I went to check the gas cap and it was a bit loose , i tightened it and once i got home removed the battery in order to reset the check engine light. In the morning i replugged in the battery , and now the car doesn't wanna start. I thought the battery might be dead and tried boosting it but no luck. All the lights on the dash are showing and its giving the whistle noise once i turn the key but when i try to start it's not even trying! remote batteries are brand new and unlock/lock the car fine. Give me suggestions please! i checked all fuses and didn't find any blown!

Sounds like a dead battery.

Check that the NEG batt cable is tight.

Check voltage with a multimeter or using CCU screen #23 (press and hold REST for 5-6 secs, toggle screens using AUTO buttons).

Check fuses.

Mercedes S500, S320, and c280
I have the same issue, filled up the gas tank last night fully, this morning tried to start the car and it would not. I thought it was the battery, but it was not. All the lights come on the dash but will not start. Does not make any starting sound simply dead, any suggestions what it can be? 1999 s320
