    Factory alarm on a Gen I (which includes the 96 R/T 10) can be disabled by a specific procedure.

    New battery Gen 3

    I prefer Interstate MTZ-34 as it is an AGM battery (no leaks) and has a 4 year warranty. This is a good time to check the condition of your cables at the connectors, check the negative cable's connection to the frame, and to be sure that the insulator over the positive terminal is intact and...

    1996 GTS Doors Lock When Idling

    Have heard of variations of this issue. Would start by carefully examining all of the wires to the door as they pass above hinge.

    2017 key fob reprogram

    As silly as it sounds, and aside from using NEW, lithium batteries in the fobs, BE SURE that the contacts are clean and reassemble the fobs carefully. With 18 fobs covering all generations, I have mis-assembles more that one fob on first try. A locksmith MAY be able to do this. Otherwise, I...

    Help Needed

    Sorry about your friend. You might get a more meaningful response here if you list the general area (city) of your friend's location. My first guess would be the obvious...i.e. greater Seattle area. Best of luck !

    Pulling your car out of storage? Jump starting? READ THIS FIRST.

    Another important point: BEFORE you even open your garage door, BE SURE that your insurance coverage is fully in place !!! This is very important...especially for those who suspend their insurance over the winter months. And, YES...this includes those who plan only a couple of mile drive from...

    Crank, no spark, no fuel

    As I recall the wording, if the PCM does not receive the appropriate signals from its sensors ( crankshaft, camshaft, upstream O2, MAP) within one second of the engine cranking, the ASD relay will shut off spark and fuel...hence the question that I asked in post #10 of this thread which was...

    Shopping for a 3rd generation

    Whatever you decide to do, hold back $10,000.00 to get the car up to road-worthy, peace-of-mind-safe. This includes tires, sensors, fluids and general service, possible window regulator, etc. Has the vehicle had the airbag module recall done ?? Finally, INSPECT it yourself...and at that age...

    Crank, no spark, no fuel

    Good point, Dan. The Schrader valve port for reading fuel pressure on an early Gen I is at the very rear of the driver side intake manifold... noting that it faces the driver. You might need to remove the windshield cowling to get to the port. It might be helpful to put the gauge on it before...

    Crank, no spark, no fuel

    Have you tried swapping the ASD relay with the starter relay...since you know that the starter relay works ?

    Door lever does not release door

    With the manual, one can gain valuable insights by consulting the 8-W-80 section. There you will find switches etc. along with pinouts...and, the wire size and colors.

    Door lever does not release door

    Start by looking for cracked/broken wires in the bundle above the door hinge. Find 2001 Viper Service Manual on eBay as it will show all that you need to now and in near future...all for a few bucks.

    Amsoil 75w90 good for late model Gen2 transmissions?

    A GL-4 is OK...just don't use a GL-5 in the T-56 tyranny. Here are a couple of scattered historical FACTS: Our 1995 Viper came with Dexron II e label Our 1997 Viper came with Dexton III label Our 1999, 2001, 2003 Vipers came with Castrol Syntorque labels 2008-2010 and 2013-2017 Vipers came...

    Lukas, I only received a very short text from you...no email address. I responded, heard nothing. I did just text some instructions to you...but cannot be sure that they will reach you. Please confirm.

    Remote control GTS

    Hello, All: I would be happy to share this info...BUT I do not want to repost it here as it still resides in the "Illustrated Upgrades" section which historically has been a forum area closed to non-VCA Members. I certainly have no desire to undermine the VCA or to subvert the rules. As...
