viper 790xv woes

did you replace the antenna too? ive seen many times the antennas on these alarms go bad. and people think its their remote because the remote isnt working. so i would say check the antenna check the connections etc.

Yes I replaced the antenna with a brand new one as well as the antenna wires. I went ahead and bought a new remote offline so as soon as it gets in I will update you guys. Thanks again for the help.

You did it again?

What else could he do?  He's a poor Eskimo living with the other Inuit in the far North, no broadband, he HAS to order offline because he can't get online.

Haha. Yea well instead of spending 200+ on a remote out of Best Buy (The only authorized Viper dealer in my area), I spent 68 on a NEW remote offline. Say what you will, but this is one of the rare times I have ever had any trouble with anything I have purchased on eBay.

Ok I'm good to go now, alarm is up and running. But I still have yet to find an answer for my earlier 2nd question "I also have a second question. The prewired starter kill for this alarm didn't come with it. I have plenty of relays and wire, can anybody tell me how to wire a relay so I can have the starter kill? Or have pictures of it? Thanks for your help guys!"

Take a 5 pin relay, key side of starter to 87a, starter side to 30, armed out (Orange?) to 85 and "proper" (i.e. stays live on cranking engine) to 86. If it's a remote start unit, your starter output goes to 87 or 30.

What do you mean by "proper"? IE constant 12v?

true ignition wire to pin 86 or, you can tap this to the key side starter wire, anyone you would prefer they work equally well!

[/QUOTE] So I will have the ignition or starter wire running to two pins on the relay? I'm not quite sure that makes sense to me.
