Default Priority Start Question?

My car has been sitting for over two weeks and today I went out to try and drive it and nothing. I have a Priority Start and it has worked flawlessly in the past but this time when I pushed in the cigarette lighter nothing. How come the priority start didn't take over and disconnect the battery before it died? Anyone with any insight on this and with any suggestions on where to go from here please post.

Thanks a lot!

Try unhooking the small gauge wire from the PriortyStart( that goes to the clip under the neg.cable),and reattach.If the battery has any juice you should hear the gears in the PS engaging and the power should come back on.If not you may just have a bad battery that won't hold a charge,and PS can't help with that one!
