    2001 GTS Stereo Build

    So to sum it up, goals were achieved. - Great sound - Vents not blocked - Spare tire still there - Still usable space back there - Easily removable - Looking in not visible

    2001 GTS Stereo Build

    As a quick intro, this is just a walk through and the reasoning on my stereo build for my 2001 GTS, and it's pic heavy. Though I don’t always listen to the radio, I definitely can appreciate a quality system and enjoy one on the longer drives (adds variety to the engine sounds). Given how...

    Viper Won't Start

    In the interest of 'closing out' this thread, the cars up and running again. I tried everything humanly possible, and then I got a phone call from the friend that helped me with the original stereo install. He wasn't sure, but thought he may have forgotten to plug back in a plug by the...

    Viper Won't Start

    Good to know and thanks for checking that :), i'll go investigate that a bit too. I suppose it's possible then that the alarm isn't resetting. I'll try to test this by setting off the alarm, and seeing if it disables when I twist that. In a bit though...daughter is napping at the moment.

    On a side note (I tried to search for this), how much 'turn' is the center console key alarm disabling supposed to give? When I put the key in and turned it, it BARELY gave in either direction. Each way I could twist had a bit of resistance, but from the key insert position it couldn't turn...

    There is definitely no power to the fuel pump. I followed the instructions about the spark plug wires, and there still was no spark. I had already checked and switched out the ASD fuse/relay so I am pretty confident that isn't it. Sounds like I'm down to one of two things, potentially a...

    To add to this, I have tried resetting the alarm by holding down the two FOB buttons until it beeps a few times, including after leaving the front positive cable off for a minute (not the one on the actual battery though). This didn't help.

    Viper Won't Start

    So to make sure I understood this right, I just needed to unplug a spark plug wire and put a screw driver down into it to see if there was a spark? If that's it, then there is no spark. So I'm looking at potentially the alarm or ECU then. It's not an aftermarket alarm, so with that being...

    Viper Won't Start

    Looks like no fuel pressure, pushed down the valve and nothing came out. In fact there was basically no resistance when I pushed it down. Will probably have to wait a day before I can try out the friends ECU, but that's a great point to borrow his relay and check that first. And yeah...

    My fuel pump relay is completely unique to the car. In fact, checked 7 other cars and it is unique to them too. Is that normal? I will give a friend a call to try his ECU.

    To check the connection of the relay/fuse, would it make sense to see if there is current in the fuel pump fuse?

    Viper Won't Start

    Double checked the fuses, and they seem to be intact. Also disconnected the head unit completely and it didn't change the car behavior. As I've never really had a reason before, I haven't paid attention to the fuel pump noise...but if it's there now it's extremely quiet because I couldn't hear...

    Viper Won't Start

    I did check it to make sure that all seemed 'in order', but when it comes down to it the Viper's still not starting so I will definitely double check. :)

    I did replace the amp in the trunk (removed it entirely actually), and have not unplugged the head unit. Will go and give that a shot right now. The battery is about 2 years old.

    Viper Won't Start

    Oh, and I suppose hello to everyone as well. Been on here a while, but mostly lurking around as I am still new to the community. Had my Viper since November, it's a Yellow/Black GTS. I've gone on a run with the local VCA group (live in San Diego) and had a blast as well. So far most of the...

    Viper Won't Start

    Due to some terrible stock speakers (including one that was completely blown) I decided to replace them and the head unit yesterday. Long story short, the Viper (2001 GTS) isn't starting now. What it's doing: The car is turning over when I try to start it, but that's all it does. At this...
