Arrow Refitting Console With Key In Ignition Now Wont Start Limiter Not Available ?

So I was refitting center console dash. I kept the key in the ignition then I try to open the driver door and it wouldnt let me. So I had to get out on passenger side. Alarm went off I pressed the key. Now When I put my key back in ignition to start I get these messages "Limiter Not Available" and "Cruise Not Available" it wont let me turn the key to start the car. Please help. Thanks

When you put the console in did you replug the harnesses....not just cigarette lighter, but the sport switch and adaptive cruise (if fitted)?

I would back-track whatever you did. Car worked fine I assume.....you did something with the console off.....put it all back....and now car doesn't work. I would think it is most likely that whatever you did either directly or indirectly resulted in your current situation.
Did you spill anything on wiring? Specifically what did you install / fix / do to the car since it last worked well? Did you disconnect those console harnesses and other harnesses while key was in ignition, battery was connected, and they were powered? If so, I would check fuses first....and there are potentially a lot.

Ok so I disconnected the battery for like hours and reconnected back. Now the power is restored. However I only just get DSC Fault message thats it. I believe my battery is drained so I will have to charge it. Now I have to reset everything bc the windows are not in sync.

Charge your battery...do not rely on a jump. If you still have problems get your battery checked at Autozone or Advanced Auto.

Any other troubleshooting is a waste of time unless you are sure your battery is good.
