I would say that you must have a security code radio, if you do not have the PIN contact your dealer with the VIN and they will be able to get the code for you.

Last night when I went out to move my car I noticed that the interior lights would not come on. I tried flipping all the switches on the dome light but nothing worked. Could this be a fuse problem from when I tried to first tried to charge the old battery and the through the charger jump the same old battery?

Check that the globe is not burnt out and also check the fuse, also if fuse is on, check for power at the done light with a test light.
