Default Hazards blinking rapidly, and car would not start

Hi CL,
This evening, I came out to my car not responding to any of my remote's inputs and found myself getting into the car with the key. Once inside, I noticed the hazards blinking rapidly both on the speedometer and the button; this is accompanied by rapid clicking noises. The car would not start and even after disconnecting the battery, the hazards would continue to go haywire. I have not tried changing the battery yet. Has anyone had this issue before? Thank you in advance!

Kinda sounds like the battery is low, or done.
How old is the battery? Anything more than 5 years and it's likely the issue.

Not too old, I could have probably left the hazards on and drained the battery. I will try to jump tonight
