Good Day,

My battery is dead (3rd time this has happened) and I am locked out of my H2. Apparently when the previous owner had the Viper Security System installed, he had the key lock disabled. I just got back from a 1600 mile road trip with no problems, parked in driveway and battery went dead overnight. I did install remote battery terminals after the last time this happened but the key fob won't unlock the truck after a couple hours of charging. I'm looking for ideas as to what would kill the battery, if there is a trick for getting into these without calling AAA and any info on re-connecting the manual door locks.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

so the key hole on the drivers side is disabled?

 

I'd check the batteries in the key fob..... if a 12V charger is connected than the alarm brain should be getting at least enough power to send an unlock pulse the to door module to unlock.

 

Yes. The key just spins.

 

Yeah - I'd have fixed that for this very reason.

 

Yeah. Embarrassing but I'm on it. Did replace battery just in case simple fix is the answer.

 

Installed remote jump / charge terminals, new battery and bought a jump pack in case this happens again before I look into getting to door key lock figured out.

 

Good plan!

 

Pull the panel and reconnect the rod.
