Follow this info first, A no crank, no start condition with a Driver Information Center (DIC) message that displays "No FOB Detected" can be caused by a low battery state of charge (SOC). The Remote Control Door Lock Receiver (RCDLR) will not function if the battery SOC is below 9V.

Recommendation/Instructions:
Check the battery state of charge and if low, diagnose the cause of the weak battery prior to performing any other repairs. Post back with what you find.
