Hey,

I was just wondering what kinds of problems you guys have been running into with the new DEI Viper 5900. I've had a few so far. For one, the setting to make the doors lock with the ignition and unlock when the car shuts off is still a little shaky. Also, I cant get the parking lights to stop flashing when the remote start is activated. There is an option to make the lights constant, but it doesn't seem to want to work.

So I was just wanting to know what other common problems you're having ans if you know of any solutions to my problems. Thanks!

I have the 5900 and am loving it. problems I had was it would start by itself like early in the morning but thats it, also I wanna make the siren and horn honk/chirp the same time but seems like you cant...

Yea I hated the flashing when remote start, I like the constant lights better. I dont know why yours isnt working, just re-do it and make sure you are in the right menu...

As for the door locks, hmmmmmm what do you mean by shaky?? mine works fine..

i have a 1995 audi 90 quattro which has a vacuum locking system. it seems like the settings where the car will lock itself when the key is in the ignition, and will unlock when the key is removed only works when it wants to. i have not noticed any pattern as of yet.

is there any way to reset all the settings to factory default? i tried unhooking the battery for a period of time, but it seems to hold the settings.

are you using a bitwriter to program it? these are very user friendly units and i have installed many now with no issues at all.....

no, i'm not. i'm not an installer. i am just a consumer that has installed the unit in my own car. i have some experience with these though, and the installation was fairly smooth.

from what i hear, you can hook these units up to a personal computer and the bitwriters. how do I go about getting what I need to conect the unit to my laptop? also, what software do i need and where can i get that?

you cannot program them with a laptop, only a Bitwriter..... you are thinking about the Clifford G series units
