1998 CLK32
1998 CLK 320 No click, no crank, no start

Alright, so the car hasn’t ran in a year or so and recently I replaced the starter motor, the crank position sensor, and the battery. First time trying to start after replacing those the car had a slow crank but no start, now when I try to start there’s no click, no crank, no start. The voltage meter in the temp unit reads 12-12.5. I tried a jump start as well and ended with the same result. Help needed urgently.

Have you tried turning the engine over by hand yet?

Remove the serpentine belt and try turning the engine over at the crank. I believe the crank pulley uses a 27mm bolt. Put a socket on the crank pulley bolt and rotate the engine clockwise (make sure the transmission is in Neutral and the wheels are chalked). You'll probably need a 1/2" breaker bar, since you'll still have compression (I hope). LMK how it goes.

Good luck!
