Friends,
My Viper 5706 two way remote does not sound when the alarm goes off. I do have the alarm set to "NOT" chirp when arming and disarming. The two does not seem to be related to me.

Is this a settings issue or how do I diagnose the problem?
Sincerely
Xtlov

Those functions are not related to an alarm triggered state. Check for voltage at the siren output positive on the 8 pin harness during a triggered state. Brown wire on 8 pin viper harness to positive on DMM and black on DMM to chassis ground. Set DMM to 20V. You should see 12V on the output during a triggered state.

The alarm works fine, I am talking about the two way key fob that is supposed to also beep when the alarm is triggered.

My neighbor has an alarm that goes off often and I cannot tell if it is his or mine.

Oh okay, I understand now. I have the 5706V in my car as well. When my FOB acted up once in the past I was able to clear things up by COMPLETELY disconnecting the battery wires and connecting the two cables together for about ten minutes. I forget where I read about this, but it did clear up the FOB issue I was having(triple shutdown notification on remote start key takeover). Be careful with this though as on many newer vehicles this may cause other issues like window relearn needed etc. Perhaps just disconnect power and ground from the 5706V by disconnecting the 8 pin at the brain and jumper the power and ground pins on the alarm brain together for about ten minutes.

Try unplugging the antenna harness and reseating the connection.

I forgot to mention that the fob does otherwise function. It arms and disarms the system and opens the rear door.

The fob does not beep as it is supposed to when the alarm is triggered.

Have you verified you can set off the alarm and that you're not in valet mode?

My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.

Yes, I triggered the alarm myself and yes I am sure that the alarm is not set to valet mode.

I do, however, have the alarm set to where the siren does not chip when arming and disarming the system.

Have you tried what I recommended above yet?

I am not going to try your first suggestion, but as for your second suggestion I will have to get a second opinion as to what possible dangers it poses.

Thee are literally zero dangers in shorting the negative and positive pins of the alarm brain as there is no power. All it will do is drain any caps on the board and likely clear up any weirdness you may be experiencing. Like I said above, it worked for me.

On the display of the remote, very top, dead center, there is a picture of a remote. Just to the left of it there is this symbol (( and to the right of it there is the same but wavy. Are the symbols to the left of it visible? If not, go through the menu from the remote and turn them on. The symbol to the left indicate audible confirmations, and the wavy ones to the right indicate vibration confirmation.

In the center, top of the remote's screen there are the two "((" symbols just to the left of the black remote icon and nothing to the immediate right side of the black remote icon accept all the way to the right edge there is the battery level icon . posted_image

The only thing I can figure is a defective speaker / beeper in the remote. If you are familiar with the menu settings within the remote, look through it and see if you can turn on the vibration feature. If it will vibrate but will not make sounds, it is the speaker / beeper in the remote.

I don't see any possible dangers as long as the battery is disconnected to begin with.

If you are still paranoid, just pop out the Viper fuse and only ground to the Viper side of the fuse lead, thereby issolating it from the rest of the car.

2nd opinion complete!

I shorted the positive to the ground wires on the main harness and still the fob does not sound when the alarm is triggered.

I will next try setting the fob to vibrate when the alarm is triggered.
