If you want to reset your Viper alarm, you can do so with your car's fob key.
Point the fob key toward your vehicle as the alarm sounds.
Listen and wait for your alarm to sound for six seconds. Press the lock button on your key. Your vehicle's Viper alarm will reset but the alarm will still be armed.
Hi,
I love the viper. Mine worked flawlessly for many years until one time my unit would not arm or disarm. Obviously 1st I checked batteries which were good. I took mine to installer and they said I had a remote go bad. He got me new remote and that was it. Sometimes I wonder if somehow I managed to hit a factory reset sequence on my remote. Considering your also having an issue with door contacts as well, I would hope it's not the main unit. My system also had a special override switch in the footwell, if you have one, perhaps you may have switched accidentally. Hope this helps in troubleshooting.
ususally this happens when the alarm dosent read the door being open, if the alarm dosent read that the door is open you should be grounding out the door trigger (green wire in most alarms) and repeat steps to deactivate the alarm
Sounds like your alarm is set up for "Silent Arming" for when you dont want to wake up neighbors, kids etc. scroll thru your setup menu and see if silent arming is engaged, if so disengage.If you need more help email me [email protected] (Jim)
Open door, turn ignition on then off. Press aand hold programming button until you hear one chirp. After you hear the chirp, release programming button, press and release button one then press and hold. You will hear one chirp. While holding the programming button, press lock button on remote to change option. One chirp is active arming(what you currently have), Two chirps is passive arming without locks, Three chirps is passive arming with locks. Turn ignition on to exit programming. Test system.
You may have lock out the remotes. If that doesn't work DEI has a one yr gurantee on remotes. In your box there should be a registration card. Call them.
this is a EASY FIX.... if the car has a factory alarm installed, then the installer never connected the OEM disarm wire. its a LIGHT GREEN/BLACK wire connected to the H2 harness. just have them connect that and youre problem will go away .
Get inside the car, turn the key to the on position, the alarm is going to sound so do not panic when the alarm sounds press the valet button one time and the alarm should stop. To place the alarm in valet mode cycle the key with the door open on then off then press the valet button one time and the alarm should go into valet mode meaning the alarm light will be on steady.
Whoever hooked up your system did not hook up the factory alarm disarm and arm wires. Your car thinks it is being stolen as a result of this. You need to get a wire diagram of your car and hook up the proper wires.
