Marco, check under the hood in the fuse box for the starter relay. You may be able to swap it with one like it if it has the same numbers on it just to see if it cranks over.

DOES YOUR CAR CRANKS OR IS COMPLETELY DEAD ONLY LIGHTS? IF IT CRANKS AND DOESN'T ENGINE RUN THEN IT IS EITHER THE ALARM ( IMMOBILIZER )SYSTEM ACTIVATED,OR THE IGNITION KEY FAILURE. IF YOU HAVE A SPARE IGNITION KEY TRY AGAIN ( THE KEY TO BE THE ONE WITH CHIP INSIDE ).IF IT IS COMPLETELY DEAD THEN YOU NEED THE ASSISTANCE OF A QUALIFIED PERSON TO DIS ACTIVATE THE ALARM AND CHECK ALSO YOUR SMART KEY AS WELL .
does it start with a boost??
how old is the battery??
did you have the battery tested by a repair shop or CAA???
Problem can be as simple as a weak or dead battery or connections.
common car for starter problems hit the starter with a hammer while someone trys to start it if this works it is ure starter, if not the stater and neutral safety switch needs tested
Common symptoms of a bad starter is fine starting when it's cold, hard starting when it's a little warm, and no starting when it's hot. The hotter the starter gets, the more power needed for it to crank. If you are experiencing these symptoms, the starter is bad.
