My baby was sitting while I was gone over the weekend, went to start her up today and this happened. Dealer said try jumping it but with all the lights and accessories coming on I don’t think its a dead battery, tried anyways but the tow guy said I need to take it in. Less than 1200 miles.

**UPDATE - Now 10.25.21 After I did the battery disconnect she started right up, went back two hours later to leave and it didn't start, again throwing all the codes. Called the tow truck, when they showed up an hour later, it started right up. Dealer had it for three days, all they could do is re-seat all the electrical connections and told me it was ready on Friday. I couldn't get it until Sunday, started no problem and got no more than 200 feet down the road and bam, all systems in fault again. It is now Monday afternoon, they have had the car all day and haven't been able to get it to to fault again, what a mess! They are going to keep it for the week, drive it everyday to see if it happens again. Starting to think I might have a lemon on my hands.

If you put black electrical tape over all those lights the problem will go away... I read it on the internet...

seatbelt? chip in key fob bad? maybe try the spare. loose battery terminal cable? My Ram did the same thing after a battery replacement. Tightened cables up and make sure of good conn. and it starts right up.
