I know this may sound silly, but are you sure that the battery you used was charged? Also, it really needs to be an automotive style battery. I don’t believe that a 12V dry cell from the hardware store is not going to deliver enough current.

I tried to look for front trunk release cable as in early models removing the wheel well liner - found out they did not install it.
I suspect that it’s there, the challenge is finding it. I relocated mine recently when I had the bumper cover off to clean the radiators, so it is now right behind where the tow loop screws in. A previous owner may have relocated yours as well.
