Got up this morning, placed key in the ignition, turned and......nothing. No Clicks...No Humms...No dash lights...No head lights...No hazard lights. No electronics. I thought...dead battery? Battery is only a year old. Checked both terminals and they are tight and still look like new.

I thought that this may be a RCM issue but at least the electronics (dashlights, headlights) should work. Could it be as simple as a jump start...battery disconnect / reprogram key fob or am I missing something? What would cause the car to die like this or drain the battery (if its the battery)
If your car is a roadster,,,,it could be the trunk light. Be sure the boot hatch is fully closed.
