Walked out to the v this morning and hit unlock on the keyfob, nothing. Get in the car no lights come on no battery power at all. I just replaced the battery a month back so it's not the battery. I have not had time to mess w it yet bc of work. What would be some suggestions of wht could cause the car todo this?
I drove it yesterday to and from work no issues. Parked it last night. Didn't leave any lights or other electronics on.
I hope the ground cable is loose bc other than that I don't know what could cause this.
Any help will be appreciated.

Take it back to the parts store to check the battery on their load/test stand, to be sure it's not the battery.
Then, slow charge the battery until it's full.
Reconnect it to the V, and monitor the voltage every have hour, to see if you have some kind of parastic draw that's pulling down the battery.
