when i bought my truck it came with a viper alarm thats what the sticker on the windows say at least well i don't like it, it only has one button to lock and unlock the doors so you never no for sure if it locked or not unless you checked and the speaker i dont think ever got installed so if it gos off the lights just flash i would just like to remove the alarm and get the factory key fobs but i dont know how to remove the alarm or even where its located if some one could help me out and tell me how to remove it that would be great there is also a red light next to the steering wheel that never goes off i think its for the alarm i might cut that wire because it draws power all the time i could also proabably trace this wire to find the alarm so can someone help me with this

 

my new one has the viper system too, if anyone knows youll be helping 2 people out!

 

do you want to take yours out too?

 

yeah i dont like the one touch lock/unlock button, but my speaker works, chirps once for unlock and twice for lock. but id much rather have the stock keyfobs for it.

 

well i would be alot happier if mine even chirped but i just want the stock key fobs does the key fob you have now have 2 buttons i have 2 but the second one doesnt even do anything

 

yeah ive got the unlock/lock button, aux button(doesnt do jack), and the alarm button(makes it go crazy)

 

The alarm is located under the panel below the steering wheel, pop off the trim panel then there's a metal plate that has about 6 bolts, remove it then there's the alarm. I guess you'll have to trace it down from there.

 

i dont have a panic button

 

illhave to take a look and i also just dont want to cut all the wires and it not be it

 

The alarm might be installed there, but it really depends wherever the installers wanted to put it.

 

i will trace the wire and this button i found under the dash that is definetly not factory to find the alarm but i need to know how to find it

 

well i just called the 1 place in this town that does the viper alarms and im gonna get them to trace it down for me, if i can get a diff key fob ill be fine with it.

 

if i could get a different key fob i would probably fine with it to but im just going to take it out

 

Have you checked their website? I was looking into their alarms and they have a lot of info on site.

 

you have to viper 350hv alarm. more than likely they reason why the siren never sounds is because it is in valet mode. to get out of that mode and have the alarm work properly . open the door press lock unlock lock. the LED will light solidly if you are in valet mode and it will go out if you exit valet mode. that is just the basic alarm you have they are anywhere from $199-299 installed. but it is a good alarm. you can always upgrade the alarm to a different model. your range will be better with the viper by the way.

 

well i was thinking i should keep it now, im coming to like it! but do you know if i can get different remotes for it? like one where the lock and unlock are 2 seperate buttons?

 

well i am pretty sure there is no speaker because i havent seen it and i looked hey 05edge do you know where yours is??

 

this is my remote
front

back

 

If it's in valet mode you have to open the driver door and press 1 then 2 then 1 and the light should so away.

I would leave it installed if I was you.

 

yah actually found it last night, mounted right up by the battery on the driverside fender(under the hood ofcourse)

 

can u get a pic of it for me?

 

sure no problem give me about 5 mins and ill have it up, ill take a pic of the remote too

 

heres the horn

heres my remote

 

thanks are remotes are totaly different also

 

yeah you cant get different remotes for yours. yours could be a remote start. they had ones like that. he has the 350hv i was talking about. but if i where you i would definatley upgrade that alarm to a new model. i upgrade every 2 years on my vehicles. i have only had mine installed for 8 months and i think this summer i am gonna install a newer model, because the new **** from directed is HOT! plus i get spanking good deals at the cost of $25 over dealer cost.
