Viper alarm goes on when connecting battery.

After trying to reconnect my battery today my alarm decides to go off.

Apparently the previous owner either didn't install the valet button or hid it very well.

I was going to pull the harness to the "horn" (Speaker) but I can't seem to find the damn speaker. It's clearly in the engine bay as it is loud as hell when the hood is up. It honestly sounds like it is coming from under the battery tray, so I pulled it and didn't find anything but the charcoal canister. So honestly I have no clue what to do.

Tried the key in the ignition and that did nothing.

So the last thing I tried was pressing the keyless entry button and that did nothing as well.

I also read other people saying the alarm being armed will not allow you to start the car. Nothing they said fixed it helped me at all.

Any ideas? Also where would the harness plug into the brain?

My alarms almost always did that. But pressing the button on the key fob always got it to stop. Twisting the key in the door or the ignition usually only works on OEM alarms. Only thing I can think of is that either the brain is defective, the fob has a dead battery or isn't working.

Any idea where the fuse might be located or what it might look like?

Found the fuse, apparently he had ran it near the fuse box.

Find out I have a broken injector insulator after replacing the upper rings.

O lawd....

You can try turning the ignition to the on position first and then connecting the battery.

should be a valet button. default is turn key to on, press button once, or something like that. your owners manual should say something about it.

Your going to need to replace that battery in the fob if its not working. Also if you look on the brain of the alarm there is a blue 2 prong plug. This is where the valet button goes. Go to your local audio install place and get one from an installer. They usually have a bunch laying around.
