Just tried to start the car and the lights all come on but no click at the starter or starter crank. Oddly a repeating clicking is coming from under the passenger seat after turning the key like a blinker left on. Any ideas ?
You didn't specify the year/model, but assuming 1993-up USA-spec E500E, sounds like the alarm system was somehow engaged which triggered the starter lockout.
