starting issue!

First off this has happened out of nowhere. The car ran fine, then 20 hrs later its doesn't crank anymore. I would like to think it is just a bad starter but I'm pretty sure its not cause my power Windows won't work now and the vent won't turn on either. Everything else seems to be alright with the car. When I try to start the car the fuel pump clicks on and I can see the radio dim as if it was about to start. I can push start the car but still the Windows won't work or the vent

I wanna say it has something to do with my stock alarm system not disarming but not sure. This happened to me about 2 weeks ago and I put the key in the door and unlocked it and it fired right up. That isn't fixing it this time.

I'm hoping a guru can help me with this issue ASAP. Thanks

Does the passenger side window switch work?

A buddy's car had some water intrusion where the drivers door harness enters the kick panel. Coroded the harness pin outs and the connector causing the drivers side window and power mirror not to work. If water got in, that kick panel is also where the alarm module is. Might have made it go screwy.

It's worth a check.

I will check that out today. What does the alarm module look like? Is there anyway to deactivate it? Thanks for the response.

Yeah, I think you can just unplug it to deactivate it. I haven't looked at one in years and years. Couldn't tell you where or what it looks like. Might be a black box looking thing.

Look it up in the FSM. Should be in the Body electrical section.
