Default Help with 2003 Z not starting

Hi Everyone, I am in great need of any ideas of why my 6 speed 03' touring will not start.

Some info:

- Car has been sitting for about 2 years (key needs to be reprogrammed at dealer maybe?)
- New battery
- Already tried replacing starter


In the video you can see that the engine does not turn over at all, it just makes a single click/flap noise when turning the key all the way.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Moved to the correct forum for this question. I'd suggest OP add some background information, including mileage, codes and why this Z has sat for two years.

90k miles, its been sitting for years because I bought a b8.5 S4, moved out/ had kids and had to store the Z at my parents house. I never intended to let it sit that long but life happens and never had the time to sell it or keep it on the road. No Codes.

Have you checked and cleaned all battery cables and grounds?
