Thank you for your reply and that information as this does help me better understand the situation.
Please give me one moment to type out some info for you. I’ll be right back!
Thank you for holding!
The issue that occurred first was a grind from the starter grinding on the flywheel but not engaging it to start the engine properly. Now there is no sound at all and still, a no start occurring. This can indicate that the starter itself failed. The starter is the component that cranks over the engine to allow it to start. The teeth on the starter can fail to where it causes this issue and the starter would need to be replaced. This can cost around $300 in some cases to have it replaced.
I recommend having the starter and flywheel teeth inspected to identify which one is worn out so the correct component can then be replaced to resolve this problem.
