FJCruiser no start

My 2022 Toyota FJCruiser with a gasoline engine refuses to start. It's got 86799 km on the clock. Could this be ECU failure? Any thoughts before I start tearing things apart? I'm leaning towards bad battery cable connections. Engine cranks, but no fire.

I had a similar issue with my FJCruiser. Did you check the battery cable connections?

You mean the terminals? Yeah, I gave them a wiggle. Was your issue intermittent or a complete no-start like mine?

Complete no-start. In my case I had to bring it to the workshop.

Turns out you were spot on. It was indeed corroded battery cable connections. Cleaned them up and she fired right up. Cost me 155€ for the fix. Appreciate the help!
