07 chevy silverado classic viper vss300

Hey guys,

Complete newbie to this forum (sorry :( , i hate it too ) but i purchased a viper vss3000 remote start kit w/ dsm200 smartstart recently and i'm looking for info before i start the install.

I've browsed around the forum and seen a few things that could help, but i want to get a few more opinions and some info before i dig in. I have a decent knowledge of DC electronics, know how to use a multimeter, and have worked for years with simpler vehicle electrical installs, troubleshooting, and the like.  This remote start is a little more in depth than i've been into tho, mainly because of the actual involvement of the BCM/PCM of my truck.

First off, does anyone have the wiring diagram for an 07 Silverado Classic, and/or is it just the same as an 06?

Second,. What other modules do i need (and where do i get them) to get it to work correctly? and if possible, why i need them would be great info. My truck has power locks / windows, and keyless entry (LS Package), which i want to be able to lock/ unlock with the smartstart as well.

Third, Suggestions? Comments? Trash Talk? Useless info?  All is welcome.

Thanks in advance

I just finished installing a Viper 5702 in a 2007 Silverado Classic. For the wiring I used the 06 wiring diagram and it was a perfect match. I used a DEI DLPKGM bypass module and hooked it up D2D. All features worked. I prewired the alarm and module and then did the install in the truck.James

Do i need a seperate module for the door locks too? I read something about some models needing them and some not, but the post was really unclear

Extremely easy truck to do. DBALL will work just fine on that truck and should take care of everything.

Thanks a bunch!, just ordered the DBALL and the xloader2 which should be here friday, I'll get it all put in next week and let ya know if i catch anything on fire. (that's entirely sarcastic, i don't see myself having any problems at all really).   Anyone heard anything about the Viper smartstart carrier not being able to handle the amounts of traffic it gets?
