Viper alarm system won't let me start car!
Okay everyone i've searched everything that I could find as to why my car will not let me start it. I'm guessing that the starter kill is causing the problem. The car has a Viper 5002 alarm system. I can't find the brain and i'm lost as what to do. Is there any way around the starter kill?

Lol I promise you it's my car. I'll even take a picture of me in front of the car with the title and my driver's license.

Yes I have the remote and the valet switch. I've tried everything. I can arm/disarm the car just fine but when I turn the ignition it doesn't turnover whatsoever. I've tried putting it in valet mode but that didn't let me start the car either. Also I have the valet switch under the dash by the clutch.

If you have unlocked the car with the remote and the car still isn't starting, it may not be the alarm/starter kill. It's rare that I have seen the starter kill relay go bad and prevent the car from starting with these alarms, but not saying it's impossible, just improbable .
This is what the brain looks like, I would have a look and see if you can see it tucked up above the pedals/behind the cluster. It may be worth a shot of pulling the green 30 amp fuses that are on the power wires(make sure the car is in the "unlock" position), reconnecting and seeing if that helps.

Alright if it's not the alarm you think it could be my ignition messing up? Which wires would i need to test to make sure the ignition is sending power when I turn the key over?

You will want to make sure that:
-The starter wire has 12v while the car is cranking
-The ignition wire has 12v when the dash lights come on and also while the car is cranking/turning over.
