The car audio shop that I purchased my viper security system from told me that the following situation fried my viper and they will not replace it:
I had 4 runs of 1/0 guage wire running under my car. The wire was ran too close to the exaust and melted to the frame of my car, grounding it.
As I was driving on the express way my sub started making a "popping" noise so I pulled over and turned my car off. I checked everything out and it all seemed fine, or so I thought. When I went to start my car back up it wouldn't start. I knew it had something to do with my wires so i unhooked the positive wires from my battery and the car started.
Heres the problem...They are telling me that the wires short cirtuited everything in my car. I think they are wrong. What do you think?

I dont know about your viper alarm but mine says that it is protected against getting fried threw the power and ground to avoid thievs from just hooking a battery to the frame.
