An engine is typically considered seized when it cannot turn over, largely due to internal components becoming locked due to lack of lubrication, overheating, or mechanical failure. Key signs include an inability to start the car with a clicking or grinding noise, indicating the starter motor can’t turn the crankshaft. Another indicator is if the engine does not crank when attempting to start, and instead, you hear electrical components activate but no movement from the engine itself. To confirm, manually rotate the crankshaft using a wrench on the crank pulley. If it doesn’t move, your engine is likely seized. Immediate professional assessment is advisable to determine the extent of damage and whether repair or replacement is the best course of action. Ongoing maintenance and timely oil changes are crucial in preventing such occurrences.
