All electrical items work fine. Headlights are bright. When trying to start with push button it does nothing, no click or any other noise

Chances are the starter motor has gone out but I would try cranking the car over in neutral. Please go over this video which covers the easy stuff and get you back on the road.

Please go over this video and get back to me. Here is the location of the starter motor. Check out the images (below). Let me know what you find.
