new viper 5701 jacked up


Recommended Posts

This damn thing wont send he 2 way response to my key fob. I get an error tome and it sucks. Defeats the whole reason I bought this alarm. Anyone know a fix? We installed it and everything works great except the 2 way feature. It is a refurb and it has a warranty but if I can do anything to fix it here that would be better than pulling the thing apart.

No matter what I press on the 2 way I get the out of range tone and flashes.

I have deleted he fobs and re added them reset everything to stock and tried that. Reset the actual car comp. Nothing worked. I havent ever gotten reply to the 2 way.

try disconnecting your battery and reset your car

http://www.techsupportforum.com/automotive...per-5701-a.html

from another forum:

i have been selling the 5701 and 5301 since they came out and have never had to replace a brain or antenna or 2-way remote (had one 1-way remote conk out)

the main problems i run across are:

1) out of range notification even though doors lock or car starts.

I always just pull the 15 amp fuse on the secondary harness for about 20 seconds and that clears the circuits and reboots the brain. So far has worked every time for me....

2) no response at all from system with either the 1-way or the 2-way remote. (usually NOT both remotes)

Check the number of flashes on the amber led that flashes when any button is pressed. Default is 1 flash (Car 1)...if it flashes twice the remote has been accidentally programmed or switched to Car 2. I can't count how many times i've had customers come back in and they have somehow programmed the remote to Car 2.

3) no response at all from system with either the 1-way or the 2-way remote.or error tone

Customer has accidentally put the Keypad Lock feature on.... just like the above scenario you have to program Keypad Lock off for the customer....

Maybe i have just been extremely lucky but of of the 200+ of these units i've sold this is all i've had to deal with....

Tried it and no luck. I saw somewhere that there was a ecall and my alarm migh not have gotten the update. There is a fix which is a 10,000 ohm resistor. I guess I will try to find one. I have a few in my garage left over from my install. It goes on the blue antenna wire. Ill try that real quick.

No luck with the resistor.

I also tried a dif antenna and cable. Nothing. It might be the actual remote then. I need to get ahold of another remote just to give it a rey, Then I can rule that out too.

No I dodnt order from that source. I got mine off ebay.
