The RP5-GM11 interface allows the replacement of a factory radio in select General Motors vehicles with Class II radios.
Using this interface will retain factory features such as OnStar, steering wheel controls (SWC), warning chimes, Rear

RP5-GM11 also provides data bus driven outputs such as retained accessory power (RAP), vehicle speed signal (VSS),
illumination, reverse trigger and parking brake.
1.These instructions only apply to R.2.2.6.13 or later revisions. The revision info can be found on a small white sticker on the
interface and packaging.
2.The radio select rotary switch on the side of the interface must be adjusted to the proper radio setting before plugging the
interface into the vehicle (see next page for setting chart).
3.The interface comes pre-programmed for all of the vehicles factory SWC functions and does not require programming unless
you wish to re-assign the SWC functions to different buttons. The SWC can always be restored to default settings by pressing

for the SWC assignments to make sense. Whatever you assign as aftermarket volume commands will also be the
OnStar volume commands.
4.The aftermarket radio must have an auxiliary input in order for the factory RSE audio to be retained through the cabin speakers.
5.RSC buttons that are identical to the SWC will mimic the SWC one for one.

interface with the ignition on can cause erratic behavior. Please make sure the ignition is off and the driver door is opened
when performing this step.
6. Plug the CMX chime module in if necessary (Ifthe vehicle chimes when the radio is removed the CMX is notnecessary).

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR DOUBLE DIN RADIOS
When installing a high-power double-DIN radio, we recommend making the following connections on the
RPS harness to ensure the interface and radio will perform correctly. Failure to do these steps, may result
in loss of accessory power output from the RadioPRO module.
During this modification you will add two new wire leads, providing additional power and ground paths for the
aftermarket radio. These wires will remove the high power demand from the RPS module, and ensure proper
12 volt accessory operation.
NOTE:
We advise making all connection points secure by soldering or usi ng crimp terminals, and insulating appropriately.
'
Connection points ("A" and "B") at the vehicle connector(s) on the RadioPR05 harness
1) Locate the Yellow 12 volt constant power wire
by the vehicle connector on the RPS harness.
a. Carefully cut the insulation, and expose a small portion of the wire.
We will call this connection point "Point A"
2) Locate the Black ground wire
by the vehicle connector on the RPS harness.
a. Carefully cut the insulation, and expose a small portion of the wire.
We will cali this connecti on point "Point B"
Connection points ("C" and "D") at the input side of the micro relay on the RadioPR05 harness
3) Locate the Yellow 12 volt constant power wire
by the input side of the micro relay on the RP5 harness.
a. Carefully cut the insulation, and expose a small portion of the wire.
We will call this connection point "Point C"
4) Locate the Black ground wire
by the input side of the micro relay on the RP5 harness.
a. Carefully cut the insulation, and expose a small portion of the wire.
We will call this connection point "Point D"

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR DOUBLE DIN RADIOS
Adding additional 15" wires to jump power and ground
5) Connect a 15" lead of Yellow wire (any color will work) to Point A.
6) Connect the other end ofthis wire to the Yellow input wire on the micro relay (Point C)
Ensure your connection points are insulated properly.
7) Connect a 15" lead of Black wire (any color will work) to Point B.
8) Connect the other end ofthis wire to the Black input wire on the micro relay (Point D)
Ensure your connection points are insulated properly.
Once the constant power and ground leads are connected and effectively bypass the RadioPR05
module, the modification is complete.
At this point the module can be installed into the vehicle per normal installation instruction.
