Hey there 12 volt enthusiasts. I recently installed a basic Viper alarm/remote start (5105) into my 2006 Scion XB and wanted to show everyone how it's done.
Be sure to note my techniques and how they have been adapted from installing 100s or even 1000s of units like this in many cars over 21 years as an installer.
Scions and Toyotas are very basic so other modern cars may take more parts to complete an install, but this will give you a run down of techniques and procedures that can be used in any install.
Sit back, enjoy, and please subscribe and share.
My alarm is linked here www.ebay.com/itm/VIPER-5105V-...

I had to write this. I've been working on this system for a week on and off and was about to give up. I watched countless other videos but none really broke it down and explained each wire function and name. How you don't have a million+ views on this is beyond me. I feel like I can give it another try thanks to you. I believe my 03 ram 1500 has different color wires than listed on websites. Closest I came was a engine crank for 1 second. Another time I was able to start it but every warning light came on dash and no air conditioner compressor not activating. Time to get back to work. Much appreciated sir.

I have the exact same vehicle and I’m trying to install the same alarm. Do you have a list or diagram of where all the wires go to. I see you’ve marked the wires needed to test and the wires to connect but you didn’t go into great detail about which wire goes where. The way they label them in the instructions are…odd lol. Do some get connected to the same wire, where does the parking brake wire go, etc. Any help with that would be great! Thanks, awesome video too!

Shout out to mobile dynamics. I also graduated from there. I went on to install remote starters and accessories for a group of dealership for 10+ years. Some of this stuff makes me cringe.... but all in all I understand you dont do this everyday like I do. De-pin your extra wires. Dont cut them and leave them on. Remote starters are not meant to be taken out and put into other vehicles. Shrink wrap is not practical but I do solder all my connections.I dont understand your threaded needle technique, Ive seen it done and I find it much more bulky and annoying to deal with. If you wrap your wires tight and solder clean its not that bad...especially if you dont ziptie all your tape points which is overkill and probably wouldnt even be possible in lots of vehicles due to very little room. Also you ALWAYS need a tach. In the winter your voltage sense will not work at all and essentiall render your remote starter useless for the purpose it most likely was installed for. I guess unless you live in a hot climate and start your car for ac and not heat. Fun video though. I liked it

Hold up. DIY dude here. Thought I was sure about what cables were what but a section of your video confused me. At the beginning you stated an accessory was already hooked up, but when you went to test the accessory, you proved a different wire. Also, on the spec sheet the ignition and second ignition are reversed compared to your edit in that same spot. I’m working on a 05 xB, practically the same. Downloaded the spec sheet from the same source. Is the blue/cable not accessory? And the black vs black/yellow cable, those are not ignition/ignition 2?

Hey great video thanks very clear and easy to understand! I need some help though, I'm trying to install a remote starter in my 2016 ram 1500. Read through wikihow and figured it's within my capabilities. The ignition switch only has 4 wires coming out of it, one constant 12V, one ground, and the other two change between 0V, 6V, 9V, and 12V as I cycle through the key positions. The wires are quite thin so I don't think I should tie into them. They must be going to some kind of control module which is where I'll have to tie into, but I'm not sure where to find this. The wires go up and group into a larger bundle which is where I get lost. Plus everything is wrapped in some kind of fabric tape really difficult to remove/cut through. Has anyone experienced this before can give me suggestions?

It's all databus. You need a digital interface like a DEI DB3 or whatever would work for your specific vehicle. I'd visit Dodge Ram forums for guidance or just get a pro shop to install as there will be a lot of programming involved.

German cars are tricky, especially with the bypass systems. Viper systems have a factory alarm disarm wire and your tech sheet should help you find the wire in the car. I have done a few stick shift cars, but it's not always advisable. You may need to use external relays for a clutch bypass. Viper does have a parking brake wire. There used to be a neutral safety switch on the market, but I haven't seen it in years.

Audis and other german cars are great cars. They just are not meant to tinker with too much. Some modern german cars require a key reader and you have to wrap a coil around the key cylinder to make them remote start. The push to start models require an interface with firmware you can download from the manufacturer. Audiovox makes good units for these too. I personally wouldnt touch these cars without tech support to back me up with programming.
