Default Lights flash and starter does not engage

I am new to the Volvo Community. I own an "89 740 GL wagon. It has had some issues that were worked around by a previous owner.
I replaced the distributor cap and rotar button. After reconnecting the negative battery cable I find the following set of circumstances:
When I open the door, the sidemarkers flash, a light on the dash flashes, the dome light flashes.
I put the key in the ignition and turn it to on and all of the warning icons come on.
The starter does not engage.
Can one of you relate to this experience and point me to a resolution, please?
thanks,
jim
