Greetings,

My apologies if this is in the wrong place, however, I was wondering if anything has heard of the issue I'm facing.

First thing I noticed as walking up to my car was that the tail lights (the dotted circles) were flashing rapidly. The I-Key and the physical buttons wouldn't work to open the door, so I used the physical key and manually opened the door. When i tried using the button on the door panel to unlock the doors for my passengers, that didn't work either. The car wouldn't turn on and every interior light was not working. Other than the little yellow indicator next to Park on the transmission.

I recently had my dealer do an electrical diagnosis, due to a problem with the wiring in my rear bumper due to an error during repair by a collision center. The dealer fixed it, been about 12 days since.


I truly Appreciate if someone can guide me on this! I've personally owned the car for a year now.

It sounds like a low or almost dead battery. There may be an electrical short or parasitic drain in the wiring as a result of the collision.

Did you try to start the car?

I have not tried jumpstarting the battery yet, in case it was a fuse problem. I will do so and update. The collision was almost 6 months ago. The only way I knew something was wrong was when I got pulled over for not having my license plate lights on. Turns out the wiring in the rear bumper was the issue.
