Car would not start after being parked overnight.
Pulled battery and tested. Had a bad cell so replaced battery.
Gauges radio etc seem to work but car won't even try to start.
Also remote key wont lock or unlok doors or trunk.
Changed its battery 60 days ago.

Scan for codes, check for good spark, injection pulse and fuel pressure, start here.

Time to call the dealer. There's many things built into newer cars that lock up when the battery is disconnected. The dealer has the equipment to unlock them and get all the computers working again.
