viper 5704 will not go into programming

Hi im using a viper 5704 in a 2005 Audi a8 using dei dlpk and kivw with 556u everything works as it should but i cannot get the viper to go into programming mode to change the run time and also to pair a new 2 way remote   ive check all the grounds even grounded the green wire h2/6 even though the door trigger is controlled thru the dlpk. i made sure neutral safety was grounded and cut off the switch and wired them together. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks

(see page 11 of the install manual)

if the previous person programming it used a Bitwriter, they may have locked the programming before exiting.

you can only unlock locked programming by using a Bitwriter.

locking with a Bitwriter keeps anyone who doesnt have a Bitwriter from changing program options.

If your system moves you physically and not emotionally, you have wasted your money.

no bitwriter was used it was working then it stopped

What are the steps you are doing to get into the programing?

1. Open a door.
2. Turn the ignition on, then off.
3. Select a Menu. Press and hold the Control button. The number of siren chirps indicates the menu number.
1 chirp indicates menu 1, 2 chirps - menu 2 and 3 chirps for menu 3.
4. When the desired menu chirps are heard, release the Control button.
5. Select a Feature. Press and release the Control button the number of times corresponding to the feature
you wish to change. Then press and hold one more time to select the features.
6. Program the Feature. While holding the Control button, you can program the feature using the remote
control.
For features with only two options;
AUX
= option 1 while
AUX
= option 2.
For features with more than two options;
AUX
selects the options in ascending order, while
AUX
selects them in
descending order.
Note: Pressing AUX button resets the feature to the factory default

Are you using the AUX button to change these features?
Try using the lock or unlock button.

I assume you are getting the correct number of chirps and light flashes from the LED on the control center.

not getting any chirps or led flashes.its not doing anything

Try removing the ignition key after turning off the ignition, certain ACC/Ignition circuits are still energised until the key is completely removed from the ignition switch.

Test before boxing up.

And BTW I agree with smokeman, it's lock/arm up and unlock/disarm buttons NOT aux.

Test before boxing up.

Try disconnecting the DLPK from the system, then see if you can enter the programming.

Did you figure out the issue?

Having the same issue. No LED flashes / chirps to select different menu... was working fine then stopped working.

Thanks!

Stupid question, but are you sure it's not stuck in valet mode? Have you tried a power cycle on the Viper unit (like pull the fuses, wait a minute, put them back in)?

No question is stupid or not worth asking. You were once a noob, right? :)

pulling fuses wont take it from valet mode..... or even armed mode.

what ever mode it was in when disconnected is what it will be in when it gets reconnected.

the oldest dei alarms like the original 300 would default to be in full alarm mode when first connected to power but for the last 15+ years dont do that.

I know, I meant them as two separate questions lol, sorry! I have a bad tendency to group my questions.

Thanks for reply.

If it's in the valet mode, the blue LED on the control center should be on, right?

Maybe I should try the power cycle.

r>Press (f) two times, and then (unlock) to put the alarm into/out of Valet Mode. The disarm LED flashes and the remote beeps once indicating entry into Valet mode. Repeating the process takes the alarm out of Valet Mode. The disarm LED flashes and the remote beeps twice.

The security system’s LED will come on solid when in Valet Mode and will shut off when exiting Valet Mode.

When locking the system in Valet Mode, the Lock and Function LEDs light for one second and emit an error tone. When unlocking in Valet Mode, the Lock and Function LEDs light for one second and emit 2 error tones.

Give that a shot. If I remember correctly, the screen will tell you if you're in valet mode or not.

The other thing is, the system detects the key's ON position through the Ignition1 input/output wire. It may be worth checking this as well. Double check to make sure your door triggers work. Those are the two things needed to get into programming mode.
