Hi . I’m a newbie.
I have a 2017 First Edition 3.0 V6. I have loved it and it has carried myself and my family 83k miles without missing a beat.
This morning I jumped in and pressed starter. Nothing. No ignition lights , nothing on the dashboard.
Checked battery - fully charged, nevertheless tried jump leads , nothing. Radio works, car locks/ unlocks. Interior lights work ok.
I’m thinking blown fuse - but which one?
Handbook does not ID a fuse for ignition but there are about 7 for engine management system.
Any ideas/ assistance would be welcome. I can’t get the car recovered as it is parked I an inaccessible position at my house.

hi Digman,

You can put your car in recovery / tow mode by opening the bonnet, popping out the engine cover.
There you should find a lever to pull from . this will release the parking brake
