Default No warnings, car won’t start

No symptoms. No codes. New FOB battery. Battery is 13.8 v. But push the start button and nothing happens. Nothing.
I’m clueless and need suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
It’s a 2005 6mn.

One thing you can check is crank relay wire terminal and connector at starter solenoid.also crank relay in fuse box.check the stud on solenoid to see if loose or melted around area its attached to

Update....
Checked everything. Fuses, crank relay, fob battery, battery shows 13.7 v and 520 cranking amps, battery terminals perfect. Nothing showed wrong, so I decided to pull the Battery and take it and have it checked. It was good.
Return the battery to the car, and she started right up!
Doing my happy dance.
So, before going through the circus routine, reboot the ECM by R&R the negative battery cable. It may work.

I actually replaced the connector and terminal on end of crank wire at solenoid as the terminal had lost tension after all these years.if it does it again wiggle connector while some one hits start button
