clio won't start, key won't turn to start position, STOP, battery and oil light on

Car  Renault Clio 1.4
Another fault and this will be the last as unfortunately i have no choice but to sell my clio because it's simply costing me too much money due to regular faults.

Basically my car won't start at all, doesn't even turn over, just a quiet tick from the solenoid, originally thought it was just the starter motor but tried rocking it and push starting it and nothing, plus the tick isn't loud enough for it to be starter motor. It also seems that there's no power getting to the starter motor.

Having said that the battery is fully charged!

As i said the key will turn all the way first time but nothing happens, then when you turn the key to the start position again it won't turn.
The STOP light is also on, as is the battery light, and oil light, and the red circular light flashes constantly as always.

After looking round the forum i understand it could be the immobiliser, i'am not ruling out that its the starter motor, but i simply don't know how to get to it so i can see the 2 wires to spot any damage.

Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks again

try squeezing the key like you would to lock it... while trying to start the car

Check the engine bay fuses and relays.

Had this a few times now, as BMH above check all fuses. I bet the 120A battery terminal has gone pop or poor continuity. If not that check the solenoid control wire for poor connection/broken connector.
