SOURCE: 04 Escalade w / Valet Starter, all works but door locks

Hello 7suds,

Well, I'd go back and tell them about the doorlock problem. I know that 2 years is a little late to start complaining, but it's most likely a really easy fix.

The most probably causes are that the power doorlock output was either not programmed, programmed incorrectly, or it's not connected or improperly connected to the vehicle servos. Have the installer check the programming, especially the doorlock pulse duration. It's also possible that the remote is simply not sending the doorlock signal. Could just be a bad button. Have them switch the doorlock function to the right "AUX" button temporarily and see if that works. But in any case, the system needs to be tested to find out exactly what is causing the doorlock failure.

Hope this helps.

Have had a Dei valet 561r remote on my Honda van for several years. Worked flawlessly. Recently, it began working intermittantly. Did not work for several days. Then worked for about a week. Then nothing....

sounds like your car battery was also replace or it die
believe it or not the remote start needs to be reprogram again

find the valet switch, this what you are going to do
make sure ac radio and any other accesorie are off

start the car with the key within 2 seconds or less press and hold the valet swith, and way until the
led turns on and the parking lights on the vehicle flash about 12 seconds
no turn off the car close the door and start the vehicle with the remote good luck

Try disconnecting the alarm putting in a valet mode and start the vehicle with the car key. If you don’t know how to put in a valet mode, check your alarm manual.

My Python 990 system is acting up.Installed several months ago. Now doors wont lock or unlock and alarm goes off every time the door is open even in the unlock pososition. The vehicle is a 2002 Escalade...

Sounds like you have a bad remote, bad battery in the remote, or it needs to be reprogramed to the alarm. If the alarm has been set with the remote, it will need to be disarmed with the remote as well, unlocking the door with the key and getting in, will set off the viper. If you know where you valet switch for the alarm is(small black push button), just turn the key forward till everything on the dash lights up, push the valet switch for about one second and let go. The alarm should shut off in a couple seconds. This will allow you to drive the car until you get you remote checked out.

Vehicle lost fire

the security system doesn't disable spark, it works by not letting the fuel pump run or not allowing the starter to work, but never does it affect spark or fire as you call it.
