Hi Roy. Where I was parked, someone backed into me smashing the grille, denting the hood and pushing back the radiator. I managed to open the hood. I don't see any severe damage, just cosmetics. The engine will turn over as normal, but will not start.

Okay, you need to test for fuel and spark.
When you crank the engine does the tachometer move up a little?
I never noticed the tachometer move while starting the car. No, I can barely hear the fuel pump. No, the airbags did not deploy.

Okay, you will need to test for fuel pressure from the pump.
Do you have any starter fluid or carb cleaner? If you do, spray some into the air filter and see if it starts and stalls.

Hello Roy,
I used starter fluid sprayed into the throttle body and car fire right up. It wouldn't stay running. I checked all the fuses and found a 10A fuse dead. It was for the injectors. I replaced the fuse and started the car. It fired right up and remained running. Thank you for your time and help.
