assuming your car is 5 speed.. under your clutch pedal is a little rubber stopper. which when you push in the clutch pushes a safety switch in.. My rubber stopper deteriorated and now when i start my car i must reach down and push in the safety switch.

just throwing my 2 cents out there :P

Does the motor crank over at least? Check the "eng cont" fuse under the hood

Might be the starter if you can tap it with a hammer and try to start also see if you can push start the car if you can its a starter issue.
