1985 CUCV starting problem - HELP!

The starter in my 1985 diesel CUCV (Chevy Blazer) died, so I put a
brand new 24 volt 27MT in it. It started up just fine 3 times, then
nothing. I checked the batteries, and they were low, so I charged them
up. Even with the batteries fully charged & 24 volts at the starter,
nothing - just a dull clicking sound from near the firewall (I'm
assuming a relay). I'm also getting all dash lights, including the wait
light. I've heard that when the starter goes, it fries a chip card that
controls starting, but I'm not sure. Anyone out there know what's going
on with my big green beast?
