Does it come on for a couple of seconds when you switch the ignition on and then go out?

Possibly fuel pump relay or the pump itself. You get access pump under the back seat I think, might be worth getting a multimeter on the pump to see
if a supply is present when ignition is switched. If yes, then dodgy pump is prime suspect, if not have a look at fuel pump relay.
