hi,
i just purchased a 91 rs camaro. and it has a viper alarm system. i have found the box, but i really dont know to much about alarm systems, anyways here is my problem, when i hook up the battery the alarm will stay off until you put the key in the ignition,and try to start the car, at this time it will go off,and continue to go off and on every 15-20 sec. until i unhook the battery, my keyless remote doesnt seem to phase it a bit when i push the buttons on it. i would have thought me putting the key in the ignition would have turned it off. it looks to have been professionally installed, all the parking lights and warning lights all work with it,and mounted nicely. could it be that my key fob is out of sinc with the alarm? is there a standard way to reprogram my remote to the system for the viper system? i dont have any info on the alarm,except the numbers on the box. any help would be greatly appreciated, i think the car sat a little bit before i bought it, but i will actually use the alarm if i can get it figured out. again thanks,and sorry for the long post. p.s. if there is any troubleshooting sites you guys know of that would also be great appreciated as well, thanks again.

p.s. the alarm will go off just by closing the hood,or opening the door as well,
