I had a Viper alarm system installed on the ex a few years ago, and as of recently, I have notice there has been issues in the ability to unlock the doors. It first started with the liftgate, where it has slowly progressed into not opening at all using the remote unlock. Now it seems to be "spreading" to the rear doors.
I do notice that I can hear the solenoids fire multiple times when locking and unlocking, which I am assuming is the alarm sending an extended signal to open/close the locks causing them to fire multiple times.
The locks themselves all work fine, as I can manually lock/unlock all of them with the doors opening with no problems. So it is not a huge issue, but is coming to the point that is just too annoying to ignore anymore. I no longer have the original keyless entry remote as a comparison to lock/unlock. Any ideas?
