This is a 2008 QX56. Wife tried to start the rig last night and it turned over, but she said her hand slipped off the ignition switch before the truck started. She tried again and got nothing.
I checked the battery, it seemed okay 12.7v, but only read 7.7V when trying to start. I decided to replace anyways. No help. Starter was clicking, but not cranking.
I decided to turn the motor by hand from front crank pulley before pulling the intake off to get at the starter. I found I can't turn the engine, seems like it's locked up. The oil level in the engine is at full, fresh oil change about 7-8 days ago, Car has been driven every day.
Anything simple that can prevent the engine from rotating? Everything I can think of, is bad news.
