You mentioned previous electrical issues, what were they?

Had no codes but it turns out that the controller under drivers seat did get wet. It was outside the last few weeks for the first time ever. Controller shot. Too corroded for any repair. One thing I found out. The frunk did open once I got the battery voltage above 12.3. The rear trunk would open under 12v. Placing voltage on the pull out connection in fuse box or via the cigarette did not work. Only when battery was charged above 12.3 via the cigarette lighter. The Car wouldn’t start regardless since the immobilizer prevented starting and couldn’t be bypassed, as far as I know anyway. If it can be I would sure like to find out for future reference.
