1. Installation Instructions

1.1 INTRODUCTION

GTS-3RS has been designed to eliminate the need for an ignition key to unlock, start and stop the vehicle,

and provide a high level of security. GTS-3RS makes use of a sophisticated electronic technology called Passive

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification). This technology allows all the same functions done by an ignition key but

completely hands free. Example: just walk up to the vehicle with the RFID key FOB in your pocket or purse and the

doors will unlock automatically. After sitting in the vehicle the driver can press the "Start Stop Engine" button one

time momentarily and the accessories will turn ON, OR Press and hold the "Start Stop Engine" button and the

Ignition will turn ON or will start if the brake is pressed. Put it in gear and drive away. To turn the vehicle off simple

push the "Start Stop Engine" button for 1.5 sec. and the engine will stop. After opening the door and walking away

from the vehicle, the doors will automatically lock and the accessories will turn OFF. Functions such as trunk

release, car locating, an auxiliary channel, shock sensor, and other security functions are standard with GTS-3RS.

Installation Requirements for GTS-3RS:

1. Automatic transmission only. (GTS-3RS is not for use with a manual transmission.)

2. If the vehicle is equipped with a locking steering column, the steering column lock must be

disabled. Mechanically locking steering columns can be disabled by removing the steering

column shroud and key lock assembly and removing the column locking pin. A cut key blank

method can also be used. Insert a cutoff key blank in the ignition and turn to the ON position. This

method requires that all electrical connections to the ignition key be disabled.

3. Vehicle can be gasoline or diesel. Fuel injection is preferred. Carbureted engines typically are not

compatible with Remote Start operation.

4. If the vehicle is equipped with a factory security key system, a security by-pass module will be

required (not included). The by-pass module will be activated when GTS-3RS is in the start and

engine running mode. Security by-pass modules are specific to each vehicle make, model, year.

These vehicle specific bypass modules can be supplied by the installer, or can be purchased

through aftermarket by-pass module suppliers such as "Xpresskit" or "Fortin Electronic

Systems". We do not recommend using "IDataLink" modules as they are not compatible with

GTS-3RS.

5. Vehicles must have a properly functioning Park/neutral safety switch.

6. Must have a properly functioning emergency brake with a negative (-) switch.

7. Requires operational (positive (+) or negative (-)) door pin switches.

8. Power door locks are required for maximum security & convenience.

9. GTS-3RS must be connected to the parking lights.

To ease and reduce installation time, we suggest you consider the following points before starting:

1. Check all vehicle manufacturer cautions and warnings regarding electrical service (AIR BAGS, ABS BRAKES,

ENGINE / BODY COMPUTER AND BATTERY). Use extreme care and do not probe any wires of the SRS

system.

2. Additional vehicle specific wiring diagrams and other helpful installation information can be found on our web site

www.gallotech.com/support.php

3. Determine the most suitable locations for all components to be placed. These components include: The control

module, "Start Stop Engine" button, siren or possible extra relays.

4. GTS-3RS can be installed with or without the ignition switch. If the ignition switch is left functional then the

vehicle can be started with either the key or the "Start Stop Engine" button. The column lock however, must be

disabled. See Figure 1 Option 1 (page-10)

5. Use a Digital Multi-Meter or 12-volt Test Probe (High-Impedance) to test and locate all connections.

Conventional Test Lights can damage a vehicle's computer systems.

6. Record all color codes of vehicle wiring to be used for reference. This will save time by not having to re-test the

same wires over again. Mark all vehicle wires with masking tape.

7. After locating and marking the appropriate wires, DISCONNECT the (+) POS terminal at the battery.

8. Determine the type of door locking system the vehicle has before connecting any wires. Incorrect connection can

result in damage to the GTS-3RS and/or vehicle locking system. There are several types of door lock systems in

vehicles today. Listed below are many types of common locking systems:



Negative Trigger (-): Many Imports; Late model Ford & General Motors (Figure 3 page 13)

Negative trigger door lock systems send a Negative (Ground) pulse to existing factory relays to lock and

unlock the vehicle doors.



Positive Trigger (+): Many General Motors; Chrysler / Dodge / Plymouth (Figure 4 page 14)

IMPORTANT:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLATION
