94 ZR1 Equipped with Code Alarm Model 80

[Wiscokid]

My alarm module is not responding to key fob. I looks like it hung up due to a slow drain drain on the car battery. The company that manufactured is now owned by Viper. The problem is similar to problems with other Viper products. I tried the fix that is associated with other Viper products which is to make sure the battery is charged then disconnect the negative battery cable and reconnect. I did that a couple of time with no luck. I have a fresh battery in the fob. Viper support was no help. They did send me an installation manual for the only Code Alarm system but the manual is for a different model and they said it was the only one they could find. The wiring pin out is different from mine so it's not any help.

They talk about a valet switch that is used to reset the alarm but I can't find it. It should be a small push button.

Right now my car is a static display in my garage and I can't shut off the alarm. The ignition key doesn't shut off the alarm I just have to wait for the alarm to time out and the car doesn't even try to start.

Does anyone know anything about this alarm system?

I installed one myself in my '94 LT1 C4. Car is gone since I bought the'91 ZR-1 but as I recall I could stop the alarm by using the key in the door. Something like a sequence of turn to unlock, lock and unlock again. I will search my big folder from that car and see if I kept the manual.
My valet switch and button I installed below the steering wheel. There was a small toggle and a small push button. Holding the push button in while turning the key to ignition would also turn off the alarm.

More to follow.

I have an aftermarket python alarm on my 92. and one key fob works then other doesnt and I am worried that the one that works will stop working. I want to just get rid of the alarm, any info on how to remove it without causing more damage??
