My Python was working fine for the first year that I had it. All of a sudden I would go to manually start my car and the battery was dead. I took the car to my mechanic and was told that for whatever reason it seemed that the remote start was killing the battery. So he disabled it for me. Since I had it installed at Circuit city well... we all know what happened to them. I need someone to fix the thing! Where do I start to look? Anybody have any idea?

That does not sound intierly tru but what is the year ,make and model of your car and i can check for you. but if memory seves me right it just consists of alot of extra work that most tech's dont like to do.

this "could" be a bad ground, however, usually when these units lose ground, they activate the siren at a really low level, because they are trying to ground through the siren.
I would say to check where the antenna plugs into the main unit,(brain) but honestly, in 17 years of dealing with DEI alarms, 99.9% of these problems are due to the transmitter - it may blink the LED like it is supposed to, but that doesnt gaurantee it is sending a signal. I would recommend buying a new transmitter and programing it to the brain.

usually a combination of 2 buttons so the car doesnt start accidentally.
Depending on the number of output channels - the installer could have installed on any of the channels and that would dictate which buttons to press.
if it is not set on the AUX (output 2) button, then try...
You have not given the model # of the unit - so these are viper's STANDARD remote controm configurations.

Hope this helps.

When the remote start is disabled with the Toggle switch there is no reason why the door locks should not work. Sounds like faulty installation.,

I have the same problem with my system that is installed on an '02 liberty. Also, it doesnt engage long enough to start the car when its really cold out.
I have the same problem of battery draining as well as failure to engage long enough to start when its really cold out.
I have the same problem with this thing as well as the door unlock no longer works. Also, the other night the thing started up my pick-up truck 3 times during the night. It too is a Circuit City purchase and installation on a 94 GMC 3/4 ton. Any ideas
