Generally the click is the starter solenoid engaging the fly wheel. The starter needs way more power than anything else in the car. It doesn't matter that the lights work. If the battery can't supply 10.5 volts under load, the starter won't turn. See if you can jump start the car and get to an auto parts store to have the battery checked.
check the battery cables are not loose at both ends. when the battery was replaced you may have loosened the cable at the starter end or the ground end?
key code lock out usually happens when you have entered the wrong code too many times leaving the battery connected should allow the timer to run down for 30 mins so you can try again, it is cumulative though so the more you get it wrong the longer you have to wait. make sure battery is fully charged first.
Someone put the wrong key (resistor value) in the ignition lock, you will have to disconect the battery for 3 min. Make sure you have the right key. Very important! Make sure the climate control is off before disconecting/conecting the battery.
I found several shops in my area, Albany, NY that had the older code readers. It worked fine, and cost me $30.00. It showed a bad O2 sensor that I replaced myself. I suggest you go to a reliable shop. Auto Zone/Advance etc.. do not have the right code readers.
