Sounds like a low batter. Put a voltmeter across the battery while cranking to see if it holds 12v while cranking. Or! Turn on your lights while cranking and see if they go extremely low or out while cranking. If the power checks OK, could the alarm sys be disabling cranking. I saw that you reset the alarm but check your manual related to this. jow
