My battery was replaced a few months ago when I replaced my alternator. Where is the frunk light located? Perhaps I have something obstructing the view.

I read about the battery saving mode but I had no power even when I had the key turned in the ignition. I even tried applying power to the fusebox as shown in this video I found. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueTM60piA6k - No luck.

How old is your battery? Batteries lose capacity over time. Also was your car locked and alarm system on?

Also, the car goes into a battery saving mode if not started for a week or so after which the remote and other accessories don't work until the key is inserted in the ignition and turned on.
