    Is the engine turning over attempting to start?

    Does large traction battery show a charge on the display?

    Charge the 12V and eliminate the jumper cable setup. Even though the 12v battery is not responsible for actually cranking the engine, it does need to boot up all the computers.

    Did you disconnect the traction battery orange safety plug? One of the common mistakes when engaging the safety plug is forgetting to slide it down after the pivot.
