Hi guys -- just got into my car, and it won't start.
I put the key into the ignition, turn it to first position, everything lights up the way its supposed to, I hear all the usual noises, radio comes on, then I turn the key and nothing. No crank, no movement, nothing. It's exactly what would happen if you tried to start the car with the security system engaged (it's not, I checked).
There's literally no mechanical movement whatsoever, but all the electrics stay on and behave normally, so I'm leaning towards it being something relatively superficial (maybe a fuse? maybe the security system isn't turning off even though it flashes green on the door handle?) Could it be the starter motor?
Any ideas for quick fixes I can try tonight? Otherwise I'm having it flatbedded to my mechanic in the morning.
