I have a 2006 Chevy Silverado Crew Cab. I Installed remote starts for six years (02-08). ive been out of the game ever since doing home automation. Well I decided to pick me up a truck and put remote start on it.

I bought a:

Viper 5704
Omega DB-GMDLBP
2 530t window modules


Question is more directed at the omega. I installed it and have never been able to get it to respond to the vehicle Platform type. I need to change it to platform 4. That being said. The truck remote starts no problem. it locks and unlocks no problem. The door triggers is where im having trouble. Drivers door trips the viper alarm. Passenger door trips the viper alarm and factory alarm. Rear doors dont trip anything. I can get to the programming features of the omega by holding down the programming button for 2 seconds. When I try and do step #1 action 2 on the omega instructions i get no flashes no no response from the omega.

On the omega i only connected

Brown to Dark Blue (H2/9 Viper)
Violet to Pin 2 (truck harness)
Pink/white to Green (H2/6 Viper)

Red and black to power and the locks straight up

Window modules have not yet been installed. any heads up on those is appreciated.

When you attempt to reprogram the module, did you disconnect it from the Data Bus? Not sure it will make any difference, but the install instructions, seem to go out of the way to point that out, get it all set up, then connect it to the data bus.

I did not have it connected. I just connected it after not being able to get it to respond. once connected i got the results i currently have.

You can do step #1 again unless you first reset Feature 7.

Step #1 does not use the hold for 2 seconds to enter. That is only for programing features 1,6,7

The bypass dosen't support those functions in platform 4 only 2 & 3, under "TECH NOTES". Will need to hard wire triggers to viper.

That's what I figured. What about the factory alarm honking when I arm and going off when door is opened

Need to know what wires you have hooked up to what, and what settings you have in the setup in the viper. Could be settings in the viper.

Well I have rethink hooked up I figure I need. It's been a couple weeks now and this is what I have noticed. 1 off I found the rear doors at the bcm. And the front door triggers I need to run into the doors?

#2
The factory horn honks when I arm. I have to get that to stop.

#3
When I unlock the truck the headlights flash. I'm sending a negative trigger to the - parking light at the bcm. I would like for just the parking lights to flash.

Is there a wire that I can tag that will just shut down the factory alarm so I won't come into play. I would assume this is the light green in the drivers door. What wire should I go to on the alarm.

Thanks guys

Not sure unless you go direct to the lock motors.

Any other thoughts on the horn honking when I arm. All doors closed. Still honks. I even have all the security settings off on the vehicle settings. I have diode isolated all doors and tied them right into the alarm.

Also my parking lights will flash when I arm, but when I dis arm my head lights flash. I have a negative trigger at BCM. I metered the purple wire at the switch and it was not showing to be the correct wire.

If the factory BCM is setting the factory alarm with the door locks and triggering the horn then you will need to go direct to door lock motors. It's supposed to arm the factory alarm with the door locks when a door is open. If you cut any of the factory door triggers to hook up the door triggers or have the diode backwards it might cause the BCM to see a open door. The diode stripes need to be towards the viper for the door triggers. And only tied into without cutting the factory door trigger wires.

No doors are open. Viper alarm arms fine. I have tested on all 4 doors.

Then the BCM is triggering the horn and headlights, will need to go direct to the lock motors to take the BCM out of the loop.

Follow the 5 wire door lock interface listed on this website.
