Hey i just got a Viper 4211v 2 way remote start with built in db-all2 bypass installed on my 06 jeep grand cherokee.
My hazard keep flashing which draws unwanted attention after i remote the jeep. Im bringing it back tomorrow to see if theres a way to rewire it so it doesnt flash the hazards.
What are suggestions/fixes that i can tell the installer to do to remedy the hazard flash?
Thank you in advanced!!

Yes but it would then flash your parking lights.
If you don,t have an owners manual, go to Viper.com support and download the owner.s manual, it should show you how to turn the flash on/off/constant.

That might be a programming issue, or the installer decided it would be easier to get the hazard lights.
Either way they should be on solid In my opinion

Pull the fuse out of the white wire on the 4211 and what ever it is attached to will no longer flash.

What Ted said is right.
Two two options on that car are the following:
---Send a ground from the remote starter to the hazard switch in the steering column
---Send a ground from the remote starter out under the hood, and tap it into the parking light relay in the underhood fuse box.
So, as you can imagine, they did it the easy way. It takes time to fish the wire under the hood, put black loom over the wire, cut or file a small notch in the fuse box cover for the wire to pass through, and figure out which terminal in which relay does the lights.
If it's a reputable shop, and you're nice and willing to call ahead and bring it in when they're slow, I don't think they should charge you anything at all to run the wire out under the hood. After all, that's the way it should have been done in the first place.
I've done a few of these using the hazards wire and gotten away with it, but I would never charge someone if they came back and wanted parking lights.

No in answer to your PM no I'm in the UK where G/Cherokees are somewhat rare and I always go to the indicators because outside of North America we always use indicators.
Our indicators are amber, North America white and red.

i think the installer just disconnected the parking to hazard wire altogether. he said since i have auto headlights it that will atleast come one to let me know the car is on. im happy with that. thanks all
