This would stop the battery fully charging (don’t know if the ignition would work though as mines a diesel which obviously has a different ignition system. This is why I suggest using a single jump lead to put an auxiliary strap to earth so you can verify or rule out that fault.
Tried to turn the engine by hand at the engine is stuck. Hard to move at a certain angle about 45deg then easy to move after that. Realised i can click crank for 4 times then the 5th time it would sound like its going to start. I have attached the audio file. Take a listen.
