did you get the alterantor tested also? it wont start if you got a bad one. if the starter is bad you should still be able to hear it turn on it just wont turn the engine over.

I just bought the alternator less than 100 miles ago and before i bought the new battery and the dead one was in there it was making that sound when the battery is dead but now nothing?? And i really donw want to have to take off the x-pipe to get it off, does it need to come off to get the starter off? let me know

Sounds like the alarm is causing the problem.

Before replacing anything else I would take it back to whoever installed the alarm and have it checked. It shouldn't drain that much power and the theft light should not be activated. I would also suspect a starter kill in the alarm is the problem for not starting.

Ya i called the shop and they said to have it towed to them and a friend of mine said it probaly happened when i had hooked up the new battery. But still trying and ther is no attempt to start in any way. I ran the codes and also nothing.
