02 viper warning light flashes, along with the self diagnosis light with the picture of an engine. Idles and seems to be running fine....Does anyone know what the cause of both these lights would be? All liquids are filled to spec. Read the manual front to back and wasnt able to come up with a cause. NEED HELP!!!! THE SNOW IS HEAR!!!!

Thanks for reading and help...

you need to count the flashes to know what the problem is, its a self repeating diagnostic system.
 
need more info...at start up or after running it for a bit or after a hard pull???

Once it would start, it continually was blinking. sorry for the spelling errors if there are some.
 
its supposed to blink when you first start it up, thats telling you the system is working and operational, its after the itial 2 blink sequence on a viper and 3 blinks on a srx that the codes will emerge if theres a problem somewhere.
 
Thats the thing, we road it home about 5 miles and it was blinking the whole time. even after we pulled it in the garage for a bit it did it. now its off. i have no idea whats up.

continous blinking is the overheating indicator, were you running it in the garage with no cooling?
 
no, just when we pulled in from outside. let it sit for about 2 minutes and then shut it down.
 
The only thing we did different was that we turned the heated carbs on before we left. but the coolant level is fine.
 
we can guess all night, I need to know how many flashes after the intial 2 flashes, take it for a ride and count them, post the count and we can solve the issue, until then we are only guessing.

Ok, ill send you a pm tommarow after i take it out. I dont mean to drag this out. im just tryin to figure it out. talk to ya tommarow. thanks for the quick response.

Dan
ps- thanks for the clutching setup.
 
if u have a heated visor wire on ur sled, check the ground....i had a bad ground on this wire cause a blinking yellow warning light
 
Hey, viperino I think your on to something. I do have a heated visor hookup but never use it. I will check that. I dont know if turning on my heated carbs would've made the light flash?

Thanks for your time,
Dano
