You should hear the starter solenoid click, if not it can mean.
1) Dead battery or poor connection at battery.
2) Faulty ignition switch
3) Park/Neutral inhibitor switch fault
4) Theft alarm circuit fault
5) Starter solenoid or connection to solenoid fault.

Have you had the battery tested? I know you said you charged it, but might want to have it tested anyways.

I think I may have a problem with the OEM alarm system in my 98 Maxima. The security light is blinking and all my interior lights blink like a freak'n strobe light when I turn the key past the accessory position

Can anyone point me to a thread that would describe how to troubleshoot the above issues in detail? I've been searching and searching and searching....
