GTStarter
-
2
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. GTStarter
-
2 makes use of a sophisticated el
ectronic technology
called Passive RFID (Radio Frequency Identification). This technology allows all the same functions
to be
done
as an ignition key but completely hands free. Example: just walk up to the vehicle with the RFID key
FOB in your pocket or pu
rse and the doors will unlock automatically. After sitting in the vehicle the driver
can press the “PUSH START STOP” button one time
momentarily
and the accessories will turn ON, OR
Press and hold the PUSH START STOP” button and the
Ignition will turn ON
or will
start
if the brake/clutch
is pressed
. Put it in gear and drive away. To turn the vehicle off simple push the “PUSH START STOP”
button and the engine will stop. After opening the door and walking away from the vehicle, the doors will
automatically l
ock and the accessories will turn OFF.
F
unctions such as trunk release, car locating,
auto
window close, anti
-
hijack,
shock sensor, and other security functions are standard with GTStarter
-
2.
GTStarter
-
2 can be installed in any vehicle
(carbureted, fuel in
jected, diesel, automatic or manual
transmission
.
If your vehicle is equipped with a locking steering column, the installation requires that the
steering column lock be disabled
.
Mechanically locking steering columns must be disabled by removing the
steeri
ng column shroud and lock assembly and removing the locking pin.
Many late model vehicles (2002
present) have electrically locking steering columns.
When activated by GTStarter 2 (disarmed mode), the by
-
pass module
(not supplied)
will e
lectrically
un
lock
the
column
.
The column will then relock when the engine
is turned OFF and GTStarter 2 is in the armed mode.
If your vehicle is equipped with a factory security key
system, a security by
-
pass module will be required. The by
-
pass module will be activated wh
en GTStarter2
is in the disarmed mode.
S
ecurity by

s 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
“X
presskit
or
Fortin Electronic
Systems
.
We do not recommend using
IData
Link
modules as they are not compatible with GTStarter 2.
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 install
ation information can be found on our web site
at
www.gallotech.com/support.php
3.
Determine the most suitable locations for all components to be placed. These components include: The control
module,
“PUS
H START STOP”
button, siren or possible extra relays.
4.
GTStarter
-
2 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 “Push Start Stop” button.
The colum
n lock however, must be
disabled.
See
Figure 1 Option 1
.
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 vehicl
e 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.
Determin
e
the type of
door
locking system the vehicle has before connecting any wires. Incorrect connection can
result in damage to the

and/or vehicle locking system. There are several types of door lock systems
in vehicles today. Below is listed the man
y types of common locking systems:
Negative Trigger (
-
): Many Imports; Late model Ford & General Motors
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
Positive trigger door lock systems send a Positive (+12V) pulse to existing factory relays to lock and unlock
the vehicle doors.
Reverse Polarity: Many Ford/Lincoln/Mercury/Dodge/Chrysler/Plymouth and early
90’s GM Trucks
The door lock/unlock motors are controlled directly from the lock and unlock switches in the door. The lock
and unlock wires rest at Negative Ground when not in use. When the lock or unlock button is pressed, one of
the circuits is “Lifted
and replaced with +12V causing a lock or unlock to occur.
