Thought battery was dead, but went to the batteries + store & it turns out the battery wasn't bad. the light before i don't think worked on the remote before, but does now. but the system still does not. the horn doesn't work either (only once it did- had car for 3 days). and the back speakers are hard to get working, maybe because they put in a new sound system, pioneer.---if any of that extra stuff contributes to the problem.
thx!

first, you need to manuslly disarm the alarm. open driver's door, put key in ignition, turn on ignition, an then within 10 seconds push the valet/program button for a couple of seconds. (it is the little spring loaded push button that they installed with your system. probably in the kick panel or under dash

sounds like there is a problem with the remote itself. Your best bet is to purchase a new one and program it to the remote start

I have the same remote and it comes disconnected in the battery section from the battery hitting it and then the commands and speaker stop working

Assuming that all is well with the vehicle's electrical system (fuses, etc...), the following should work, as Viper/Clifford uses the "fail safe" method of starter disable, and it only works to lock out the starter when the alarm is functioning properly and in the armed state.
That system has a "starter kill" system. When the alarm is actived, the starter kill is engages, and won't let the starter get voltage from the ignition switch. First thing I'd try is connecting the car's battery while the ignition key is turned to the "on/run" position. Cycle the alarm to arm, then disarm, so that the LED is not blinking. It also may require using the manual override button/switch (with the key on) to reset the alarm. Should start after that.
If all else fails, reconnecting the starter wires back together (they are spliced and running through the alarm via a SPDT relay.

Try reprogramming the remote. Open the door, turn ignition on, press and release valet switch one time, then press and hold valet switch while pressing lock button on remote.You should hear a confirmation chirp from the alarm. Release both buttons.Turn off ignition. test.
