Gear grinding sound after starting

[mamaw56]

Motorhome started, sounded like it was going to stall out. Replaced the battery. After that it only clicked. It finally turned over and started but a loud noise like gears grinding followed. Now it won’t even click, it’s just dead. What’s the problem here?

What year make and model?

Is it a diesel or gas engine?
