I just had a viper 5500 installed in my 2000 Expedition. The installer told me that I could only add a second remote that is a basic 4 button remote. I would like to add another 2-way remote like the one that came with the system. Has anyone done this to know if it is possible? The replacement remotes are available for a resonable price online, but they are all advertised as repalcements, not add-ons. Also, I need to know where to find the instructions to add another transmitter. Can anybody help me?

downloads sectionshould have it. as for transmitters, vipers are capable to taking up to 4 remotes. add two 2-way remotes might cause them to conflict with one another.

I looked in the download section, and didn't see anything for the 5500. Which manual should I follow for the programming. Also, the ones that I looked at showed how to go through the button learning routines. Do I need to do that for each button, or is there a way to learn the entire remote without configuring each button?

Programming is easy. Open a door, turn ignition on, press the valet twice holding it down on the 2nd press, you'll hear a confirmation beep from the siren, press the lock button on the remote, you'll hear another beep from the siren and your all set.

no need to program each remote. the unit defaults as auto program learn.
