Lights flickered and the car didn't start, but all dash lights stayed on. Battery is only 2 weeks old.

I would check the battery cable terminals at the battery, make sure the key system is off and wear protective eyewear and gloves.

Here is a guide to help you with instructions for your car in the images below:

Please go over the ground connection as well and look for corrosion. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
