How many miles on the car? Is the engine light on? Is it missing fuel or spark?

Customer replied 894 days and 20 hours ago.

54000 miles on the car.

the engine turns over, but will not catch, no smell of fuel despite multiple starting attempts.

I suspect that the fuel pump relay/fuse is out, since the audio system also will not turn on.
