H&C

I am able to place the key in and turn all the way to ignition, no engine click, no turn of the engine. I am able to turn radio on, lights on, middle gauge comes on when inserting key. No additional accessory response at second or starting position. Put a meter on the battery - reads 12.6, did notice that I do not hear the usual (grinding/metallic turning) noise that i used to when placing the key into the ignition, I do hear something electrical clicking on at the floorboard drivers side. Replaced the battery in key fob cleaned the ignition hole and key.

My guess is battery. charge it to full or replace it. I had a similar problem once. Everything seemed OK but would not even try to crank. Good luck.

You don’t say how many miles or what year. Or how old the battery is. 12.6 v is good voltage , mine at 12.2 starts fine but terminals are clean and battery load tested fine. It could be corroded battery terminals, bad ground , starter or a bad battery that can’t supply the amps. Clean battery terminals, charge it and see if it helps. Get the battery load tested , any auto store will do it free.

It looks on ESL, do you hear the specific inserting sound when you put key in? If not, it's esl...is your steering wheel locked or unlocked?
