check the fuse box in the glove box, look at the little fuse card...check for any blow fuses and replace.

That's not how you jump-start it. The terminals for jump-starting are in the engine compartment. Check your owner's manual.

^ Thats happened to me once. After you run the battery completely dead, its instrumentation may not work for a period of time. Eventually, it'll come back.
Running the battery dead on these cars is very hard on their electrical management systems. Do whatever you can to avoid that from happening again.
