2006 RL - Center Console Completely Out After Battery Dies

So, I go out to my car to day and the battery was dead. I got it jumped, but now my entire center console, time, radio, navigation, all if it doesn't work. Blank... nada.

I can't get the diagnostics to come up, the radio code entry, nothing will come up at all.

Anyone have any ideas on where I should try next?

Replace battery. Lights may not be showing up because the volatge in battery is too low. Accessorries are tunred off when the battery gets too low to power them up.

Welcome to AZ!

Agree with Miner.

The solution is to replace your battery, it's very common on the RL to have electrical gremlins as the battery (very quickly IMHO--2 years on average) dies down. If you are in warranty, the dealer should be able to replace your battery at no or little cost depending on how old it is.
