Your battery is dead. I had the same issue where everything started except the engine, no tick either.

Took it to the shop to do a reading on the battery, and it showed it "could" hold a charge, but for how long? I didn't want to risk that, so i just bought a new battery. Problem solved!

I have just experienced the exact same thing.. Bought a light front end damaged e250 coupe
Now repaired .. Would only start with jump leads but now won't even do that ,just makes a click and then nothing ?
Used a heavy duty mains powered booster and then starts ..
Had a new rad pack fitted but the fan won't kick in so risk of over heating.
Any idea guys ?
