I have a viper alarm with the blue fob with screen.. is there anyway I can use the oem fob to do what the viper one does besides the screen of course.. lol

 

Most likely not.

 

Didn't think so.. i was wanting the flip key with the buttons in it to get rid of the bulky viper remote..

 

I have the 5902 so I know your pain... it is large.

 

I liked it at first but now its getting annoying.. guess I gotta live with it.. lol

 

Which model did you get?

 

I'm not sure I got it years ago when I got my system installed..

 

Did you get the one with the 2 way remote?

The reason i ask is the 5902 i got came with 2 remotes one two way (with color screen) and another 1 way that is actually smaller than the factory fob.


You may be able to buy the one way remote and program it to your viper (not sure worth looking into)

 

Na I think I only got one..

 

if you have a screen its a two way remote (you get signal back on whats going on with your alarm if you're n range)

 

The Viper alarms don't allow external arming and disarming so it is not an easy task to arm them with your OEM transmitter. It can't be done, but it involves mounting a hard wired remote under the dash. When you lock the doors it triggers the hard wired remote and arms the alarm. Same thing when you disarm. Not a perfect implementation but it can work.

There are alarms that have external arm/disarm wires. They would probably work better in this application.

 

I'm just gonna stick with my bulky remote.. lol
