You bought the battery before or after you drained it dead? Sounds like you have to charge the battery for a good 6 to 8 hours at a low amp charge. The longer the charging time at low amps will bring your battery back to full cold cranking amps. Also make sure your battery connects are clean, this is very important
Your battery is definitely dead. Jump start the car, or charge the battery. If the volt gauge is less that 12v or the charge light is on, with car running, you have charging issues...probably alternator.
Disconnect the battery, wait for 10-15 min then reconnect. It should reset any shortings.

Please the fuse is cut off and it is located in the car beneath the driver side underneath the steering compartment.
Good luck.
SOURCE: where do i install a cigarette lighter in my 2006
Hi:
If you purchase the proper cigarette lighter from the parts department, you can plug it into one of your utility outlets on your dash.
SOURCE: My 2003 Saturn Ion remote trunk release won't
Check to make sure the button on the trunk latch is turned from manual unlock...they made that feature so only the key will work to open the trunk that way if someone breaks in the front of your car they can't hit the trunk release and get into the trunk...may be the same thing for your remote. Hope that helps.
SOURCE: What size is the fuse for the cigarette lighter for a 2004 Saturn Ion
You need an owners manual for fuses & lamps
If you find the location --you have the size
If you look at all the fuses-- you eliminate the question
& if a fuse is blown
This is just a chat room,sorry, don't have any data here,at
home like you

Where did you hook up the jumper cables to the ion? I would start checking fuses. Hooking up the number cables in the wrong spot will blow fuses.

Battery is brand new
Even though you have a newer battery, those tire pumps use a LOT of juice! So if you don't have a tester, put a battery charger on it, and charge it up. Also take a look at your battery connections on the top or side, are they clean and tight? Should not be able to move them(don't worry, won't get 'a poke' when it's not running, as it's low voltage) and between charging the battery and checking the cables are tight(you'd be surprised at how many shops or people forget to tighten one or the other) you should be good to go. Also make sure you don't have a interior light turned on, or glove box left open etc., all which will drain your battery.
