Ok.i had this thing installed by a REPUTABLE shop in Alton 2 yrs ago and that is where my troubles started. Worked good for 3 months.....then locks worked irratic.sometimes would lock-unlock going down the road. Took it to the shop and was told its a dealer problem(van is a 2005 dodge.....under warranty). So.i took it to the dealer and bammo......i got charged 85 dollars and was told its due to the viper malfunctioning. Ok.so i went back to the shop and...its been going on for 1 year now. I was told it needed a door switch(40 dollars.i installed and still doesnt work).......then found alot of bad crappy wiring job crud(looked like a 6 yr old kid with a soldering gun did this job) so i took it back up there. Then they tried to blame my wiring of the defroster i added to the van(my stuff was soldered and heat shrinked.......hmmm)...but they did tidy up their wiring but still it doesnt work. Im tired of the back and forth bull im getting and im smart enough if i knew how these things are wired........i can at least tell what is wrong. I did get a generic diagram and found the double relays have no power going to them(i beleive its to terminal 87 on both relays). I called viper and they told me the viper module controls that(which..as i told the nice people before.i think the viper has expired and it has a lifetime warranty!!!). So.if anyone works on alarms and can help me.....holler. Ill make it worth your time for sure. Thanks
