Disconnected battery, now I have an issue with the remote start/alarm.

[ZMan2k2]

I was installing a new stereo, and since I was tapping into other wires, didn't want to fry anything, so I disconnected the battery. Now, when I remote start the truck, I can't unlock the doors with the remote, it disarms the alarm, then I have to unlock the door with the key, and unlock for everyone else in the family. I used to be able to remote start the truck, and press the unlock button, disarming the alarm and unlocking the doors. I've gone through the manual, trying to find what I need to do to reprogram this functionality, but I don't know what to look for. The alarm/starter in question is a Viper 5901

Any help finding what I need to program would be most appreciated. Thanks.

Does lock work? , does it still remote start? My money is you might need to set it for double pulse unlock.

[ZMan2k2]

Yes, both still work. I'll try your suggestion, thanks.

*edit* Unfortunately, that didn’t work. I have an appointment on the 12th for the original install shop to look at it. Lifetime warranty.

You turned the double pulse setting on via the menu?

Menu 1 - 6, option 2 ? Feb 12, is a long time to wait to get it fixed.. I am a little surprised they didn't say swing by, and we can change it with the bitwriter for you a in a couple of minutes.

Sure did, 1-6-2. No go. The locks don’t move, not even a pulse when remote start is running. The shop IS busy, so I can see the need for an appointment.

no worries, thought I would double check.. I assume no changes were done to the wiring of the remote start?

[ZMan2k2]

No, no changes. It's weird, they work independently, but not at the same time. I, too, was hoping to have them break out the Bitwriter, and fix it then, but I'm hoping patience pays off. I appreciate your help in trying too. Thanks.
