Take your DMM, put red probe on the pink heavy gauge wire, black probe to ground. Try to remote start the vehicle, You should see the DMM go from 0 to 12 volts during the remote start process.

Do this on the Pink, Pink/White, Violet, and the Orange. These are the output from the remote starter to the vehicle. If there is no voltage, something is not connected right, a fuse is blown, no groung, defective unit.

When all else fails, Read the Instructions

The hood pin wire and tach wire are not hooked to anything. I checked the brake wire and I have 12v on braking.

Ok you have 12 volts on H1/1 H3/2, 6, and 9...but I asked you to test the OUTPUTS of the unit. H3/1, 3, 4, and 7... What do you have on those wires when trying to REMOTE START. Reread my last post.

Seems to be pointing to a defective unit as Howie II suggested.

I think so too if the wiring is as simple as connecting the heavy gauge wires. I'm confident they are right. I have some basic electrical knowledge. I wired the alarm portion and had to wire relays for the lock/unlock and all that works fine

Ok so I ordered a new one.

Does it seem the wiring is right?

Also I noticed that I programmed the ignition controlled locks and they do not work and now when I try to get to the program menu the light stays solid.

That means you're in valet mode and I suspect the pink ignition wire might not be reaching the Viper, check H3 wires AT THE VIPER PLUG END.

I checked the pink at the plug end it has power on key. When I went to check it this morning neither of my fobs would disarm the system. Which was set by the fob
