hi guys,

i finally got my remote reprogrammed back to my viper remote start alarm (one of the high frequency modles that include an antenna) X-mitter by the great advice here. however i dont know the "channel" my remote start is on? i have the 4 button remotes and i had the remote start set to button II instead of pushing buttons I and II together.

thanks for any info!

thanks for your reply.

if you mean the button on the remote.. yes i pressed it at least 5 seconds. normally within 2 sec's the lights flash and the car cranks, but since the remote has lost 'sync' with the brain i need to reprogram the remote start back on the remote, but i dont know which 'channel' the remote start is on. as stated, i got my arm/disarm/panic back on my button I so now all i need to do is get the remote start function back on button II.

i appreciate any more responses.
