Inspect the battery connections. Make sure they are free of corrosion and are tight. If that is the case, have the battery tested.

Also make sure you didn't trigger an aftermarket alarm with the poor battery connection.

You have to disable the alarm system. Must be an aftermarket alarm system that is installed. The factory content theft system doesn't disable the starter.

Most of them have a remote that isn't factory. Most of the time they are installed behind the dash on the driver's side. There will be a box with wiring that doesn't look factory. How long have you had this vehicle?
