After testing everything tests OK. Red probe to 12volts and black to parking light connection before after and at viper connection. +12volts is displayed and when unlock pressed voltage drops briefly to 11.86volts. Same thing at parking light fuse connection tedmond mentioned. I am going to try to reset viper and see if that does anything. Manual with viper is not very accurate, so who knows. Thanks for the help.

you will not have parking light confirmation if you have autolights, and in the on position. are you sure the jumper is in the negative position? It should be 0v after a light flash. not a floating ~11v.

Well, like always, it was just another case of me being an idiot. It was that polarity jumper. I knew it was supposed to be in the negative position. Not only was it not in the negative position, it was in the 3 pin ESP harness. Thanks so much for the help and sorry for the dumb mistake. The last thing I wanted to do is waste someones time. Another lesson learned.Parking light confirmation R/S - Page 2 -- posted image.

I learned a lot about testing and trouble shooting, so it was not a total loss.

I pull the fuse on the parklight white wire on the remote start and verify both sides before I test the unit....Does not take much to fry a component in a vehicle!!!!!

Pros have a procedure, mine is to check the fuse before plugging in the H1 connector.
