***Kia EV6 Zombie Mode***

###My 2023 KIA EV6 Recent Timeline

- The EV/Start button has not been working  
- The day before, I started the car using the remote method; that's by using the smart key to lock the car, then within 4 seconds I pressed the remote start button on the smart key.
- The car started and I drove off fine
- Then I arrived at my first destination; before I shut off the car, I decided (in hindsight, a dumb idea) to check out what's the so-called 'Utility Mode' option in the infotainment touch screen of the EV6. "Little that I knew, that in order for me to get out of the 'Utility Mode' option, I have to press the EV/Start button, but as I stated above, the EV/Start button is not working.
- But I needed to shut off the car, and lock it, to be able to, when I want to drive it to my second destination, press the lock button on the smart key, then within 4 seconds press the remote start button on the smart key to start the car to the state that I can actually drive it.
- So, to solve the issue, I first disconnected the negative of the 12V Battery, then I pulled the yellow ribbon of High Voltage battery up to disconnect the High Voltage battery too and waited few minutes to reset the car.
- I then pushed the yellow ribbon of the High Voltage battery back in, then I connected the negative of 12V Battery; to my surprise, the car turned on by default, yet stuck in neutral gear.
- So I opened the hood again, and this time, I pulled only the yellow ribbon; it still didn't shut the car off, and I only got a message about some electric system disconnected.
- "So I pushed the yellow ribbon of the High Voltage back in; the car continued to be initially stuck in neutral, asking me to press 'P' for parking which I did but I started getting a message about the 12V Battery getting discharged."
- I left the car as is, and I fell asleep inside the car; when I woke up, the car was dead.
- Luckily, I have a replacement 12V Battery on me; I removed the discharged 12V Battery, and I connected the replacement 12V Battery, the car turned on (not fully on I think) stuck in neutral asking me to press the P button, which I did. I started to get again the message that the 12V Battery is being discharged, as it did above.
- Last thing I did is 2 hours ago, I disconnected the negative of the 12V battery but I didn't pull up the yellow ribbon of the High Voltage battery; I left it pushed in. 
- What I need is to get the car to turn off, so I can press the lock option on the smart key, followed by pressing the remote start button on the smart key within 4 seconds to be able to start the car fully and drive off


###Current Status: 
The yellow HV battery ribbon is pushed; last 24 hours I disconnected the negative of the 12V battery. Now, I connected the negative terminal of the 12 battery; the car turned on in Neutral Mode, and in the bottom left is a red battery symbol on what looks like a brown (ish) car symbol with a key in the middle. I pressed the foot break, and tried to turn the dial to Drive or Reverse, it won't turn to Drive or Reverse; it only turns to Drive and I get flash message about wipper fluid low (a message I have been getting for a few months). Then I opened the car door, the car started peeping noise with a message 'Vehicle On'. I got out of the car anyway, and I tried to lock it with the smart key, it won't. I walked away about 25 feet, and I tried to lock it again with the smart key, it won't. So  I walked away about 100 feet, and I tried to lock it again with the smart key, it won't. 

"I can lock it with the mechanical key while 'Vehicle On' but then, when I press the remote button on the smart key, and unlock the car with the mechanical key and get it in and press the foot brake, the dial still won't shift to Drive"

"I can also lock it with the Android U.S. Key Access App while 'Vehicle On' but then, when I press the remote button on the smart key, and unlock the car with the Android U.S. Key Access App and get it in and press the foot brake, the dial still won't shift to Drive"
