car wont start after charging battery..please help Sign In

my car sat for like 10 months and hasnt been started till now...the car wouldnt turn over and the radio wouldnt come on at all nor the lights...i have 3 batteries in my car ran parallel to each other cause of a subwoofer system in my car...i also have a aftermarket alarm with remote start on my car....when i charged the battery the alarm was going off so i cut the siren wire cause i couldnt get it to stop..after charging, my lights, dome light, radio still wouldnt come on but it its weird cause the alarm was working....it is a 97 chevy lumina ls if that helps any.....could it be the alarm disabling my ignition cause it is going off? i wouldnt assume cause none of the lightd work either ...please help

3 batteries because of the stereo, huh?

You need to grow out of the childish games and then buy a car that hasn't been destroyed.

If you need to make that much noise with a stereo in a confined area, just drop a hand grenade in the back seat.

I hope you have the info for the aftermarket alarm as it's quite apparently disabling the car,

10 months, 3 batteries in parallel probably not all identical (guess) and one can fail bad and take out the others! That and a bird's nest of hacked in aftermarket stuff you may want to just throw Hammer's grenade into it!

Not sure what to say except to find out if possible how to remove the alarm entirely and restore the wiring as it was intended AND the remote start crap all of which is just asking for troubles,
