Default need help asap plz car wont start

battery is good

sounds like the alarm is immobilizing the starter, only things i touched before realizing it wouldnt start back up was the drivers side fuse panel and the little bulb on the passanger kick panel and i tried replacing the lightbulb inside the glove box but i couldnt get the insert out....any help will be very very appreciated because i need to go to work...

Well had similar problem a few months ago, car would either not start, or it starts but stalls while running (and unable to start again). Turned out to be bad alternator from power steering leaks. Mine is a 95.
