The first suspect is a bad crank sensor.

[https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/honda,2013,odyssey,3.5l+v6,1505176,ignition,crankshaft+position+sensor,7196](https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/honda,2013,odyssey,3.5l+v6,1505176,ignition,crankshaft+position+sensor,7196)

If the computer doesn’t see a signal from this sensor as the engine cranks over, the engine isn’t going to start.
