Default 1995 Viper Alarm system and automatic starter causing problems

Well, I came to the conclusion that my problems lead to the automatic starter and the Viper alarm system.

I drove to the gas station and shut my car off. Went back to the car, turned the key, and nothing.. completely dead as if I had no starter, solenoid, etc. I changed the solenoid and it didn't fix the problem, but that was before I realized that it's something to do with the IDIOT rigs.. the dreaded automatic starter and viper alarm system.

Why do I think it's one of them? Well, I had the car parked at my buddy's, and then I looked out in his driveway. It was in gear, of course. It was parked close to his house, and when I looked out, it was about 12 feet out of it's original position. I couldn't figure this out, until I realized the battery was dead, and when we tried to jump it, it tried to start itself, in gear, etc.

Well, I went under the dash and found the automatic start, I unplugged that and ******* chucked it across his lawn. The viper alarm system is still up under there, and I can't figure out which one it is.

I was wondering if there's any quick fix to these problems.. I can't figure out why they would just start messing up out of the blue, the remotes are dead, so useless to me (and the automatic starter is 1.5 hours away from me now, I jumped the car and brought it home).

It tried to start itself when I got it home, even with the automatic starter out of the car.. What do I do?!?!?!?! I can't start the car with the key now, and I am going ******* insane.. I've contemplating selling it, beating it with a baseball bat, blowing it up.. arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I believe it has something to do with the anti theft and the chip in the key. Take it to circuit city or best buy or a local place, viper usually stands by their products

Now I've expirience problems with my Viper automatic starter too! First off, when it's cold out and it starts, the engine starts, then stops with a clanking sound. Once I started it, it turned over, stopped, so I just used my key and the car started freaking out and my theft light started going crazy. Other times I will try to start it, it won't start, so I'll manually start it, move it out of my driveway or something, and when I walk back into the house, it'll start!

Ive read that there's a yellow wire coming from the ignition harness that you need to reconnect to bypass the relays, but I don't see a yellow wire.. all I see is cream color wires, and a pink/white one. My car, like I said, was equipped with BOTH pieces of junk, so I have relays everywhere.. I dont know what's safe to remove, and what isn't
