I have a 2006 Acura TL, everything works great, but when i pop the trunk using the viper alarm, the viper alarm goes off. It doesn't disarm. Option 2/9 is set to on. If the alarm is armed and i disarm the factory alarm with the keyfob and then pop the trunk using the viper alarm, the viper alarm STILL goes off..... Help :(

you could always disarm the Viper alarm before opening the trunk...
What wire on the Viper alarm do you have the trunk trigger wire of the car connected to?
Also, when the Viper alarm goes off, what zone does the remote show?

The Viper manual doesn't actually have a wire labeled "trunk input". Are you referring to the blue multiplexed input wire in the main harness....the wire next to the door trigger wires? That is the wire you should be using.

Weird....in the old days whenever you used the trunk release (RED / white) output and a (-) showed up on the trunk input wire the alarm would know to ignore it. Now there is no mention of it in the manual. I believe it is still supposed to work that way, although there is no longer a mention of it in the install guide like there used to be.
You seem to have everything wired up correctly.
I got a couple theories...How far does the trunk 'pop' open when you hit the AUX button? If it only releases slightly, but doesn't turn the trunk light on that could be the problem. Does the alarm sound immediately, or does it go off once you begin to fully open the trunk. The Viper needs to see a (-) on the trunk pin wire almost immediately after using the AUX button in order to know to shut down that input. A quick test...get in the trunk and close it. Hit AUX until the trunk pops. Did the trunk light turn on?

I just noticed on your post on CarSound that you are using a kit from Bypasskit.com.   What kit(s)?

XK510 HODL4
not sure if the input is done from the trunk light or from the switch. It shows instantly and it shows even if its just popped and not openend on the display on the instrument cluster.

Unplug the HODL4. Arm the 791xv and the factory alarm using the OEM remote. Wait a little and use the 791xv remote to pop the trunk. Does the 791xv still go off? If it doesn't then the HODL4 is causing the problem. You will need to meter the output wires to see what wire is triggering the 791xv. I have a feeling it may be the door trigger output. If it is, I would recommend not using the door trigger output of the HODL4 and going directly to the corresponding wires in the car. Let me know what you find.
You should also check if opening the trunk causes either the door trigger output or the hood pin output of the HODL4 to become active.
The LF door is green in a 16 pin plug, pin 15. The RF door is lt. GREEN/ red in a 14 pin plug, pin 12. The LR door is GREEN/ YELLOW in a 16 pin plug, pin 14. The RR door is GREEN / WHITE in a 14 pin plug, pin 13. Located at rear of fuse box. Use all four wires and diode isolate each.
