Why won't my Skoda Octavia start?

My 2006 Skoda Octavia will not start. The key is not going to the ignition position and there are no initial start lights on dashboard. What's wrong?

Hi Angela,

Sounds to us like a dead battery. It might come back to life if 'jump-started' and then driven for a while, but it's possible that it needs to be replaced completely.
