OK, I have the viper vx791. I replaced the battery on the remote because it ran out. Not too complex. After I put the new battery in, although the alarm can arm and disarm, no status updates show up on the pager. DEI's tech support is useless, and that Audio/security forum gets a tiny amount of traffic. Any ideas on how to fix it?


PS I already tried removing the remote from the memory and reinstalling it. Didn't improve the situation.

 

Hmmm...sounds like you're pwn3d.

:reechy:

 

I had the same issue with mine. I pulled the power to the alarm .

DEI sent me new remotes, didn't work.

 

You suck h:

So, were you able to fix it? How?

 

New remotes didn't work. I just pulled the fuse to the brain .

 

you need to set it to check your car every 30 seconds probably. if you hold all four buttons at once, it will beep one long beep. then press star button until it beeps once at you. then let it sit and it will beep 2-3 long beeps. it should be set to check your car now.

 

What about mine, it has 2 buttons :happysad:.

 

what model viper do you have?

 

To set yours you have to send everyone on HAN your password and $20 via paypal. Then you must wear a garbage bag, only a garbage bag, hide in a dumpster and eat nachos covered in ex-lax for 3 days straight. But you can't take a crap till the 4th day. On the fourth day you throw the remote in the toilet then you go on the remote. After you get rid of the smell it should work. If not, I lose the game..

 

Nope. Already tried that. It is paging properly.

I stopped by a viper dealer, and it turns out it is the remote Well, I'll see if I can do a warranty return soon :happysad:
