I have an 2006 IS250. The car was running fine yesterday but when I went out to drive to work this morning the doors wouldn't open. I thought maybe it was the key fab so I went and got my other one - also didn't work. I replaced the batteries on both of them several months ago and the light on the fab flashed when I pressed them so I don't think it is the fab. I manually opened the car and tried to start it. Nothing. The lights wouldn't turn on, the whole dashboard was dark, etc. Completely doesn't respond. Tried to jump it and again, no response. The batter is fairly new (maybe 9 months?). I'm just not sure what to do... Money is a bit tight for a couple of months due to other repairs on a different vehicle. Any ideas?

You have any kind of test lamp, test meter? Something to confirm battery has any life? A spare 12v lamp from anything you could jumper across the battery posts?
The fact that nothing changed from jumping it with another vehicle indicates fuses or fuseable links may be opened up.
Pop the hood and inspect the fuses by the battery under the clear cover. Lets us know what you find.
Anyone else drive the car?
