Hello,
I have a Vito Van 2003 turbo diesel, automatic, 4 cylinder
When I put the key in the lock I can not start the engine. Turn on the fan as the engine overheated, in fact it is cold.
Previously I ran out of light and radio, so I touched the main fuse next to the front seat,I tried to fix it, but I think now I have a much bigger problem than it was.
I ask for advice and help, what can I do?
Thanks in advance!

When I put the key in the ignition all the lights are on, but can not start the engine. Works only fan.
Key on the remote is operating normally, the lights, blinkers, brakes are o.k.
