Where do I begin...

:headbang:
Hello fine people! Hopefully someone can help. New to LR land.
Purchased a 2003 discovery at a very reasonable price (I know, you get what you pay for) :? It had been sitting a couple years as a project car and they just didn't have time or money to deal with it. Battery was jumped and started right up. As the tires were dry rotted and poor condition had it towed to my home where it sat for another month until I could get all the paperwork together to submit to the DMV, and then had to wait another few weeks , as due to Covid everything is done by mail. So plates and registration finally came this past weekend. Had to be jumped again. Drove it to my local tires place for new set where it sat for a day . Monday when they went to move it side markers / flashers going off and car will not start. Turn key and nothing. Also, all the locks besides the driver are locked and cannot be pulled up. Drivers lock cannot be locked and key in door dose nothing. Freely moves back and forth but does not move the door lock.
So, went and purchased a new battery. Scoured the Internet for ideas. Tryed taking battery terminals off and attached to each other to try to reset. No change. :headbang:
I'm assuming this is some sort of security lock out??

Broken pin? Where? You can't just say that and not say which one!
