There is a starter solenoid on the passenger side fender well. It has 2 big threaded post and 1 or 2 small ones. Have someone turn the key and see if that is what's clicking. If it is take a big screwdriver and jump across the 2 big post and it should start right up

Sounds like the transmission needs rebuilt. Has the transmission been serviced regularly? Try changing the fluid and filter. If you can't work on it yourself, then try a transmission repair shop, it could be a clogged valve body or your shift solenoid (s) are bad. Climb underneath and unplug the connectors to the transmission and inspect them, look for broken, frayed wires. look for corrosion on the inside of the connectors and clean them, put some dialectic grease on the connectors before plugging them back in.

Is there a red light flashing on top of the dash when you try to start the vehicle ? PATS - passive anti- theft system will not let the starter engage .No - crank - no start

Then you have a shorted wire or other component. No magic bullet to fix this, you get the wiring diagram and track down the short.

Have the codes read to find the problem. Being auto, look to the ABS system for a bad or erratic wheel sensor. Could be a shorted wire also.

The security system the car arrived with is integrated into the vehicle electronics and cannot easily be bypassed, shut off or otherwise overridden. If the security system is defective, having it repaired is often less trouble and cheaper than getting around it. I suggest you chat to your local Ford dealer and then ask a local auto locksmith how much cheaper he can repair it for. The alternative would be to remove and send away the engine management ECU to be decoded. In the UK it can take a couple of weeks and cost about £200 for none-trade and it isn't a suitable thing to do for all cars.

It should be the 15A fuse in slot 24 of the interior fuse panel
