Car won’t start, help.

2012 fit. Yesterday car would not start, you would hear cranking and car tried to start. I thought it was time to change the battery because it has been 5 years and the machanic suggested a while back. Well.. I got a new battery(part# 31500-SNC-00100M) from Honda and problem is the same. What is the problem and how do I fix it? Fuse? Spark plug? Any help would be appeciated.

I have 2 videos and a pic but file too big. you could hear the engine trying to start.

This is not the type of thing you can diagnose over the internet, unfortunately...
If the motor cranks, its not the battery
if it cranks, and doesnt start it could be any of the following:
no gas (check your tank)
no gas delivery (fuel pump, injectors)
no spark (coil packs, spark plugs)

You can spend money replacing all of these, or take it to the mechanic (tow) and have them check it out...

I agree with Enzo. Is the Check Engine Light on? Poor compression could also cause issues and that could happen if the spark plug(s) is lose. As Enzo says, you have to be standing there watching / listening / a lot of experience to understand what you're witnessing / implement a fix.
