2019 1500 won’t start - battery not the issue

I can’t get my 2019 Ram 1500 to turn over. Push button ignition won’t start the truck and all power and electrical systems work. I tried to jump it and still couldn’t start.

A small red light turned on in the upper right area of the instrument panel that I’ve never seen before.

Anyone know what the problem is?

post a picture of the "small red light"
use the fob to push the start button
change the battery in the fob
how old is the battery?
is this an e-torque?

bigdodge: Sounds like the "security" system is active preventing the truck from starting, that small red light is the security system. OP, Look in your 2019 vehicle manual, page 35.

— Vehicle Security Warning Light — If Equipped
This light will flash at a fast rate for approximately 15
seconds when the vehicle security alarm is arming, and
then will flash slowly until the vehicle is disarmed..
