I would check the terminals on the battery to make sure they aren't faulty, check that the battery isn't actually flat, check the spark plugs, ht leads etc. If I still didn't know what was wrong I would give up and ask my dad

I think you can take them off from below with not much other disassembly.

If its not the battery when ya turn it over check for a click noise from the engine bay thats the starter solenoid, if no click it might be this or check the alarm, the ECU light should be on before ya turn the key, if not the alarm is armed normally
