I’ve looked but can’t find anything that matches my issue….. trucks a 2019 1500. I installed a new battery in the truck (it’s charged). I got in to start it and it does nothing. Brake pedal is hard, seems to recognize the fob, says to step on brake and push button. I push the button and nothing happens. I’ve locked and unlocked it, dis and reconnected the battery with the same result…… nothing happens. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

I dis and reconnected the battery a few times and it finally wound up working. I actually just placed the terminal on the battery and that’s when it started. Once I had it started I tightened the battery terminal. Seems ok now. Started it a few times at this point.
