Why cooling fan runs and engine won't start?

My car was running normally then switched off the engine for a few hours, came back and while trying to start again, cooling fan runs, no crank and engine won't start.

All dashboard lights on after single click on start button while pushing breaks (cooling fan runs), which is really weird coz engine is not hot. Another press on start button, everything goes off.

I recently changed radiator and spark plugs + 2 ignition coil.

Any idea what could be the reason and how i can fix it?

It may well be that the fault with the cooling fans has drained the battery too much, when it tries to start the battery voltage collapses and the electronics give up. Try charging the battery or use a booster pack to get it started, you can then drive it somewhere to get the cooling fan problem fixed - this may well need to be a main dealer with the right diagnostics equipment.
