2002 passat / viper 4205v no response.

I thought you mentioned 7 clicks? That means it's getting power which is why I suggested testing everything.

I am getting 7 flashes from the module led when checking shutdown diagnostics.

Dead in the box brains....becoming more and more common place...it's pretty bad when I don't even meter anything before i swap out the module...yeah I know it sounds crazy but we order forty modules at a time and at least four will be toasted or do weird things...Directed must have changed up it's manufacturer or something cause for the last few years it's been disappointing.   So if all wires meter good and you have no action on the starter It's likely cooked...I can only assume you tried remote starting with the key in the ignition...?Solder, tape, repeat!

Ummm...this vehicle requires a key wrap as the transponder...so I assume you are using the bypass for conveniences...silly question but it's kinda important to know...did I mention I hate doing R/S on V-Dubs!!!!Solder, tape, repeat!

shark, are you buying directly ? I stopped using viper after the Responder LE models came out. Had nothing but problems. My buddy uses viper still and i know for a fact no units come DOA. I used compustar exclusively and have yet to have one come backTed

Been using auto start forever....thinking about a change just due to the dead ones...how do you like compustar Ted?Solder, tape, repeat!

when i did install (still do some on the side) i've never had any issues with them. Small platform, fully customizable, use of idatalink blade for a much cleaner install, not to mention FULLY MODULAR! this is a plus. Those that use 1ways can always upgrade to 2way with new antenna and remotes. So far no complaints, just they are a tad pricey. Contact robert thibert or staub. Staub has better prices if you meet the MOQ, thibert they don't care how much you order, but thibert's shipping alone will kill your profit.Ted
