Dead Battery - Can't get car to start even w/ jump.

[Cinburr]

HI... Spouse has 2004 bird - he is at our new home out of state and I will be joining him in a week. Went to start the bird a couple of weeks ago and it was dead -- since it was backed into the garage had to wait until the movers took all the boxes out to be able to get to the trunk and jump it. Tried to jump it today -- gets juice from jump, but when son went to start bird, it turned over and then immediately died (like a kill switch was on) and then the alarm started going off. Did this 3-4 times and we never could get it running. Is there a magic combination to go thru to bypass the alarm or whatever is killing it? Would rather not have to have car towed to dealership 60 miles away if I could avoid it! The battery is fairly new-- he had trouble with it last year going dead after just a few weeks so the battery was replaced at that time-- couldn't be more that 6 months old. I was able to start the car the week before Christmas w/o problems but then 2 wks later when I tried to start it up, it was dead, and now this. Help!!

Thanks!

Cindy
