OEM GVIF Radio
Installation
1. Remove the factory radio. This usually requires pulling panels and removing a series of
screws. Disconnect any associated harnesses and set the radio aside.
2. Gather the provided ‘Power/CAN Harness’ from the GVIF-CTS kit. Connect the
following wires to the car:
Note: CAN connection is not supported at this time. You must connect the GRAY wire
to a reverse lamp for reverse activation!
3. Disconnect the factory GVIF cable from the factory
radio, this is square, blue connector.
4. Connect the male side (labeled ‘LXIN’) of the
provided GVIF video cable to the factory radio.
5. Connect the free end (removed in step 3) of the factory
GVIF video cable to the female side of the provided GVIF
video cable (labeled ‘LXOUT’).
6. Connect the white end of the GVIF video cable to the
interface at the port labeled ‘LVDS IN/OUT’.
7. Connect the AV Input cable to the port on the GVIF-CTS interface labeled ‘AV IN/OUT’. If
you’re only connecting a reverse camera (and no other
inputs), the signal input from the camera must connect
to the RCA labeled ‘REAR-C’. Refer to the dip-
switch settings chart to skip/enable AV sources
upon toggle switch presses (optional. Page 2).
8. Adjust dip switches on the GVIF-CTS interface properly, refer to the chart on page 2 for
qualifications.
9. Connect the white plug from the ‘Power/CAN Harness’ to the port on the GVIF-CTS
interface labeled ‘Power/CAN’.

10. Optional: Connect the remote eye to the port labeled ‘IR’ (on the power harness) and
leave it in clear view of the driver (often it can be stuck inside a vent). This connection

interface’s menu. Refer to ‘Menu Adjustments’ for menu options.

interface labeled ‘MODE’. Pressing this switch with the ignition on will cycle the screen
modes as follows: factory screen > NAVI (RGB) > AV1 > AV2 > AV3 > factory screen.
Please refer to the dipswitch section on page 2 for input
settings.
12. Start the car and test for proper functionality before replacing dash pieces.

FAQs
Q. I cannot switch A/V sources.
A. Check IR or toggle switch connection. Check the LEDs on the interface, if nothing is lit
up with vehicle ignition, check power/ground connections.
Q. All I see on the display is a black screen (no factory image pass-through).
A. Make sure the video cables (IN/OUT) are connected at the proper location
(Screen/Radio/NAV DRIVE).
B. Make sure the video cables are seated all the way.
C. Make sure Dip Switches 5 & 6 are set correctly (resolution or screen size).
Q. Displayed image color is not proper (too dim or color seems wrong).
A. Try to select ‘INITIAL’ in OSD menu.
Q. Rear camera image does NOT appear.
A. Make certain Dip Switch #7 in set down for aftermarket camera, or up for a factory
camera.
B. Try swapping the CAN connection wires. This will not do damage, if it is hooked up
wrong it will only not work.
C. Make certain the camera is properly powered. Check voltage at the camera itself.
D. Try an alternative video source, don’t assume the power/ground is correct unless
you’ve checked it with a multi-meter!
E. If this is a CAN-connected module and you’ve connected the CAN wires, try using the
gray wire (not all interfaces have this wire!) instead of the CAN connection for reverse
activation. You’ll also need to change the Rear Select option in the Menu of Factory (MENU 2)
under UTIL or PARK. Refer to the Menu Adjustments section.
Q. Unwanted A/V mode is displayed upon a toggle press (A/V source switching order:
OEM->RGB->AV1->AV2->AV3->OEM).
A. Check DIP Switch Setting. Refer to page 2.
