1997 Chevy Cavalier RS 2.2 not turning over. Rapid door chime. Sign In

It's been sitting for about 6 weeks. It started to turn over and there was some clicking and a pop from behind the glove box. Then it stopped turning over. Now the door chime that comes from the same area in chiming rapidly, which I have never heard before. When I turn the key, the Check Engine light comes on, but nothing happens. No crank at all. I made sure I had enough of a charge. Everything else electrical works fine. The starter was new last year, and it has power going to it.

With nearly 200,000 miles on the car, I've had very few problems.

Any ideas?

I would start by checking your battery connections and making sure they are Clean, lubed and tight. soungs like bad connection somewhere. Maybe bring in the battery to a autoparts store and have it load tested.

I checked the connections. Everything seems fine. I even hooked up a charger on jump mode. Same thing. Fast chime behind the glove box. No crank.

Other ideas?
