When you tried to start it, was it making any sound at all? Was it dead quiet, or did you say it was groaning, (like a dead battery?) The reason I ask is that I didn't know for a long time that when I try to start mine and it doesn't start, that not only do I have to turn the key all the way back to the "stop" point, but the key has to be pulled out of the switch tumbler before it will engage again. First time it happened to me, I was really bumming out because I thought "Not another problem to figure out!" It started again, but I didn't know why, or what made it not start until I read somebody's post on here that said you have to pull the key out of the ignition before you try it again. I'd never had a car that needed the key removed before. Don't know if that's your problem, but it sure stumped me when mine did it.
