Introduction & Features
Important Notes
Wiring Connection Chart
Illustration / Schematic
The RP5-GM31 interface allows the replacement of a factory radio in select General Motors vehicles with 29-bit LAN
radios. Using this interface will retain factory features such as OnStar, steering wheel controls (SWC), warning chimes,
Rear Seat Controls (RSC), factory XM Radio and the BOSE amplier when the original radio is removed. The RP5-
GM31 also provides data bus driven outputs such as retained accessory power (RAP), vehicle speed sensor (VSS),
illumination, reverse trigger and parking brake.
1. 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).
2. 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
and releasing the program button on the side of the interface once and waiting 7 seconds for the LED to ash 3 times.
3. RSC buttons that are identical to the SWC will mimic the SWC one for one.
4. The LED will ash whenever a SWC button is pressed.

Installation Steps
1.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.
2. Make all connections as described in the chart on page1.
3. Factory installed ampliers will determine the audio output connection. If the vehicle has a factory installed amplier use the factory amplier
audio location. If a factory installed amplier is not present use the non-amplied factory audio location.
4. If the vehicle is equipped with a Premium BOSE system, connect the subwoofer and center channel RCA inputs to the aftermarket radios.
If the aftermarket radio to be installed does not have a dedicated center channel or sub output do not use this cable. To ensure best sound
performance channel summing is not recommended. Use this cable according to the outputs that are available.
5. If the vehicle is equipped with a reverse camera and the aftermarket radio has a reverse camera input, connect the yellow RCA plug on the
brown connector to the aftermarket radios reverse camera input.
6. If the aftermarket radio is equipped with an auxiliary input and you wish to retain the factory XM tuner, plug the RCA connectors from the
interface into the radios auxiliary input.
7. Plug the CMX chime module in if necessary (If the vehicle chimes when the radio is removed the CMX is not necessary). PLEASE NOTE:
In order to get the best possible sound out of the CMX please mount it in a place free and clear of any obstructions, preferably as close as
possible to the bottom of the dash pointing down toward the oor of the vehicle.
8. The Mute loop (if not cut) will turn the accessory output off when an OnStar or Bluetooth call is made or received. If the aftermarket radio has
a mute input cut this loop and connect the outer brown wire to the mute input.
9. Connect the SWC wire according to the chart on page 1 (aftermarket radio MUST support a wired remote input).
10. If you wish to reassign functions to the SWC follow the programming instructions in the next section.

IMPORTANT! The interface comes pre-programmed for the functions listed in the chart below 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 the program button on the side of the interface once and waiting for the timeout.
If you wish to re-assign the SWC functions, the interface must be programmed in the specic order shown in the chart on the next
page. If you come across a function in the chart that your steering wheel does not have, or you do not want to program, press and
release the program button on the side of the interface to skip that function. The LED will ash off and on conrming that you have
successfully skipped that function and are ready to proceed to the next one.

Testing & Verication
1. Turn the ignition on. The LED on the interface will turn on & the +12v accessory wire will turn on.
2. Turn on the radio & check balance & fade. Note: Premium Factory amplied Systems will not fade as neither the
aftermarket radio or the RP interface have the ability to control the amplier’s fader.
3. Verify that the factory subwoofer (if present) is playing
4. Verify that all SWC are functioning properly for both the aftermarket radio and OnStar. To adjust OnStar volume, press the
OnStar button on the mirror then use the volume buttons on the SWC to adjust the level. The volume will raise a total of 8
times before returning to the original level.
5. Verify that the factory XM tuner is functioning properly.
6. Pressing the OnStar® button on the rearview mirror will turn off the rear speakers and allow the OnStar® audio to be heard in
the two front speakers. The OnStar® active LED will also turn on. When OnStar® disconnects, the radio will un-mute or turn
back on and the OnStar® LED will turn off. Pressing the Mute/OnStar® button on the steering wheel for 1.5 seconds will also
activate Onstar®.
7. Turn off vehicle & remove key. RAP will be active & keep the radio on for 10 minutes or until the drivers door is opened.
8. The LED & radio will turn off when RAP turns off or the drivers door is opened.

no function) when the Rear Seat Controls are turned off.
• Press the power button to turn the RSE Controls on. If Radio
is displayed press the SRCE button to select factory XM
tuner mode. When XM followed by the channel number is
displayed factory XM tuner audio will be heard through the
