It is very common for the battery to discharge on a vehicle sitting idle for 3 months. First disconnect the positive + & negative- battery cables, and clean the battery post and cable connections off. Apply a thin layer of dielectric grease or Vaseline to the battery post and connect the negative - cable. Put a battery charger on the battery and let it fully charge overnight. If it will not accept a charge it is defective. It it does show fully charged, connect the positive + cable and see if the engine will start. if not, then more than likely the battery is dead and needs replacing.

The flashing light with a car key on the dashboard typically indicates an issue with the vehicle's key fob or ignition system. It may signal that the car is not recognizing the key, which could be due to a dead battery in the key fob, a malfunction in the ignition system, or a problem with the vehicle's anti-theft system.
