Acura TL Not Starting/Kill Switch?
Hey guys, let me preface this by saying I know almost nothing about cars so layman's terms would be appreciated..
I have an Acura TL type S, the kill switch may have been triggered because the car isn't starting. It was working just fine two nights ago. The only issue I had was the car not locking after I got home from work. I pressed the key fob a few times, and when I realized the passenger door wasn't closed all the way, I pushed it so it would be then the lock worked. The next morning the key fob wouldn't work at all even after replacing the battery and my roommate ended up opening the car manually. The dashboard lights won't even come on. The key fob is still lighting up red. What should I do at this point?
I'd appreciate any help. Thank you.

yes, a weak to dead car battery can just suddenly die without warning.
the cool thing about our headlights is that they automatically turn off, if you leave them on.
this car has lots of electronics in it and can drain the battery pretty fast.
the most common electronic piece that draws on the battery is the Hands Free Link, or the bluetooth module. it's common on our cars to go bad and drain the battery .
