Default 2020 Insight Starting Problems

I have an Insight (2020) that has no power at all unless I start the car by pushing the key fob into the start button on the dash. I can't use power windows, open the trunk, open the gas flap, can't do anything. The start led will just flash white for 30 sec or so until I physically depress it using the fob. I changed the battery in the fob already with no change. Has this happened to anyone else? Suggestions?

Check No. 19 BACKUP MAIN (10 A) fuse located in the under-hood fuse/relay box.

Dude, I don't know how you knew that. Thank you so much. Is that in a manual I don't have or something?

The symptoms you described can be caused by the blown back-up fuse.

You're welcome. To give you a little more info. The back-up fuse will need to be installed during PDI (Pre Delivery Inspection). Without that fuse, it will have the same symptoms you described.
