The AM has less range? Hmmm.... according to the spooks at DEI, it was supposed to have more range.

Dammit. Typical though.

I remember thinking that the Viper 790/791xv would be able to control more than one vehicle. The way the manual was worded I think just gave me that impression. But after further investigation realized that the system can learn 4 remotes but the remotes can differentiate between different vehicles.

Excert from the install guide:

The system comes with one transmitter that have been taught to the receiver. The receiver can store up to 4 different transmitter codes in memory. Use the following learn routine to add transmitters to the system or to change button assignments if desired.

yes with the older 791, Clifford 1.5/3.5 etc you can learn the same remote to more than one vehicle, but if you and your wife, etc. each have a car parked in proximity there is no way to have it not start or unlock both vehicles....

the new units Viper 5000 or Clifford 10.5 have the new remote that allows you to toggle between vehicles, a nice new feature.... i'm amazed that you say it works on your 791, it's not supposed to be able to, being that the dipole Responder antenna is FM vs. the nubby AM antenna that comes with the new product....unless you have the wrong model number... or unless as usual DEI is treating me like a mushroom again.....

This is the remote. It has a "P" programming button on the back.

Had to "build" a 791 once, only had 560XV's and 5000's in stock, so, plugged in the 5000 antenna, learned the remote. You get a different running icon, forget what else was different on the display.

I think I'm throwing a 785XV in the car when they get here for the hell of it. Getting sick and tired of starting the diesel with the valet key, locking the doors, and going back inside to finish my coffee for 20min to wait for it to warm up. Actually, I'm surprised that I don't have a starter in this thing.... had it for 2 years now.

Carpenter's house... I tell ya.
