2002 Ford F-150, Viper 791XV Alarm/Remote Start

i got the viper 791xv and i was going to install it in my 2002 f-150. i was wondering where most people have put the siren, led, valet swicth, and the main "brain"? any help and/or pics would be great. thanks

i have a 2002 ford xlt f-150. i am installing a viper 791xv alarm in it and i need the wiring diagram for it. thanks

good site. thanks

It's been a while since I've done one of those trucks, but here are some suggestions.1. Make sure that you really want to do this yourself first - Viper alarms' warranty is void if they aren't installed by a dealer.2. With that said...siren can go on the firewall without too much trouble. LED - on the top half of the steering column shroud, or in a switch blank anywhere on the dash. Valet switch - zip tied so that it's accessible when you pull off the fuse panel cover. 3. The main brain I'd suggest putting either behind the instrument cluster or between the heater controls and the radio. Both of these locations are a pain in the rear and involve taking a couple more panels off, but they'll also make the brain that much less accessible to a thief than if you did it the lazy way and put it right under the driver's side dash. The satellite relay module can go right near the ignition harness.C Renner's Auto Electronix

i installed a viper 791xv on my truck about 3 weeks ago. i was looking through the manual and it says to disarm my alarm i can press the valet button so many times. is it come set with a number or do i have to program it for that number or what do i do?

it is set for 1 press as the default.  You can set it to any number 1-5 in the programming menu.Life moves pretty fast; if you don't stop and look around once in a while; you could miss it.

the way you disable your alarm if its going off and remote will not work you open door with key while alarm is armed. find you switch. turn the key to run possition wait a second than press and release valet switch once the alarm should shut down. but you need to count to like 2 before you press the switch after you turn the key on. if the set number is more than one than you still wait a sec then press switch set number of times.Jon
