Viper 791XV just stopped working

My Viper 791XV just stopped working on my 88 Monte SS, worked fine the last time I drove the car witch has been a min I had to jump it off it had been so long, I was thinking maybe I blew the fuses by doing so but the autoloc function still works, but when I press the button to arm it or any button on the transmitter it just beeps as if its out of range, so I was thinking I unpluged the antenna back accident doing some mods but checked that this morning and its still connected on both ends any ideas?

disconnect the antenna for a few minutes that may work.  Jump starting tednsd 2 cause problems with the 791 antennasCause I'm So white and nerdy...

try doing the thing with the remote that consult your owners manual or get one online at www.directed.com and it will tell you how to reprogram remotes. some times over a long period of time that alarm will drop remotes. it is easy to program i can tell you but the book will or online guide will explain it better.Jon

mecp certification is not always needed. I have it and it has not helped me out at all. my experience out shines it.

the install guide is on thuis site in the downlaod section, it tell ya how to reprogram the remotes

check the fuses in the vehicle and make sure you didn't blow something in there first. then you may need to relearn the remote but if it is communicating with the alarm at all that usually isn't the problem. you may need to check the fuses in the alarm itself and make sure the fuses aren't partially blown. also, check the voltage getting to the alarm and and make sure it is at least 12 volts. good luck."I cannot teach anybody anything, I can only make them think."
