w222 2018 S-class key not detected

Hello everyone, I have 2018 facelift s-class and it has rear left corner damage(had an accident), but problem here is that car has 2 keys and car doesn't detect any key. I've changed batteries, and if it says place key to the compartment it still dont detect key, so i cannot take it off from P and put it to Netutral so I can move the car to fix this issue. First I was thinking there are some radar sensors and electronics in the back of the car and some electronic cables are broken, but I think it still should detect the key to put the car in neutral. Keys should be correct ones the little metal key inside the key is working if you manually unlock the doors. Anyone has any suggestions? what fuses to check or anything else.
Big thanks.

There is some procedure to put the car in N so it can be towed. I saw a tow truck driver do it to my car once. {{Dead Battery}}

Sorry for your accident !!

Sounds like an issue for the certified repair shop or dealer.

nope, airbags are all good. there are some radar and parking modules in the back and a lot of broken cables probs thats the problem there. I will fix the cables and put everything back together, then will see if the problem still exists.
