I parked my 2001 Taurus sel it ran when I parked it the battery went dead so I put a new battery in it but it still won't start does anyone know what might have happened ?
It is possible that the car's alarm/immobilizer system is preventing the vehicle from starting. Manufacturers, in an effort to prevent car theft, have the immobilizer activate if the battery circuit is interrupted for more than a certain number of minutes. This keeps car thieves from cutting battery cables to prevent alarm activation. If the battery goes flat-line dead, the same thing can occur. You need a special tool available at a dealer or repair facility to reset the immobilizer.

Here is a link to the factory owners manual, the info about the fuse is in the manual.

Your alternator is dead/dying. Nissan puts both of those lights on to tell you that the alternator isn't charging your battery.

It sounds like it could be the starter solenoid. I would remove the battery and have it tested, then when the battery is put back in make sure all battery connections are clean and tight. If you go to autozone.com, you can register your vehicle for free and have access to a full online repair manual. Good luck and hope this helps.
