Please check starter engine and starter engine cable during start.

Please check fuse relays and check "+" to ground resistance at battery (check no short circuit there).

If starter turns the engine, check petrol pump pressure (on right cylinder line there is a valve looks like bicycle wheel air valve, turn off hat and press valve), if no pressure, petrol pump motor is jammed or no electrical connection (it is in the petrol tank under rear-right seat).
