Engine won't turn over. was created by viciouspenguin
So I went to do some work over the weekend and found that the engine won't turn over!
I've checked all the fuses and recharged the battery.
When turning the key there doesn't seam to be any clicking that would indicate the starter motor should be engaging. I have noticed on the dashboard an icon of a car with a padlock. I honestly can't remember if that is usually there or not!
Any thoughts? I haven't tapped the started motor with a hammer yet...

The car with a padlock icon is normal. I get that on mine before I fire her up. Sorry I couldn't advise on the rest of the issue.
