Overview
Installation Instructions
AutoTrac Universal system requires the GreenStar
system to operate. The two systems consist of the
following components:
• GreenStar
– Receiver
– Processor
– Display
– Harness
• AutoTrac Universal
– AutoTrac Universal Steering Wheel
– Shaft Bushing
– AutoTrac Universal Harness
– Anti-Rotational Device
The GreenStar System
This system consists of a receiver, a processor, and a
display, connected by a harness. On the new GS2
system, the display and processor are combined into a
single unit. The GreenStar system is the backbone for
many processes such as recording harvest yields,
setting planter and chemical application rates, and
mapping acres covered. Because the GreenStar
system is utilized by so many different processes, it is
sold separately from the AutoTrac Universal Steering
Kit. Installation of the GreenStar system is dependent
on the vehicle it is being installed on. Newer John
Deere vehicles come with the harness already
installed.
AutoTrac Universal System
This system is an easy-to-install guidance system that
works similar to the integrated system, but instead of
directly controlling the hydraulics that steer the
machine, the AutoTrac Universal system turns the
steering wheel, guiding the machine using the same
mechanisms that a person would.
Because AutoTrac Universal isn’t integrated into the
steering system:
• It is compatible with a large number of different
machines. See your John Deere dealer for a list of
approved platforms.
• Accuracy is affected by wear on any part of the
steering system.

Attach AutoTrac Universal Harness to GreenStar Harness
Depending on your vehicle’s harness configuration, the
AutoTrac Universal harness will be connected to the
GreenStar harness at one of the following locations:
GreenStar Ready Vehicles
Vehicles that are GreenStar Ready (or vehicles that have
GreenStar harnesses already installed) can be connected
at one of the following locations:
• 2- and 4- pin terminator connectors found at the CAN
bus extension (A) in the side console of a GreenStar
Ready tractor.
• If equipped with an Implement Connector the AutoTrac
Universal harness can be connected at the 2- and 4pin connectors on the implement connector (B).
NOTE: FOR TRACTORS EQUIPPED WITH A TECU:
Implement connector can not be used as the
source of the 2-pin power on machines equipped
with TECU.

Theory of Operation
The ATU Auxiliary Resume Switch assembly was
designed to allow ATU operators the ability to resume
AutoTrac operation using a switch that can be mounted in
a suitable location in the cab or operator’s station. The
switch cover can either be mounted directly to a rigid
surface or can be disassembled to allow panel mounting.

Switch Cover Direct Mounting:
1. Find a suitable location in the cab or operator’s station
for the assembly to be mounted that will be out of the
way of normal vehicle operation.
NOTE: Harnessing will also need to be routed so it does
not interfere with any vehicle functions performed
by the operator.
Use clips provided to secure harnesses.
2. Mark and drill pilot holes using a 5mm (3/16’) drill bit
for each of the two mounting holes in the assembly.
IMPORTANT: Use caution when drilling into a panel
so that hidden wires or controls are not
damaged.
3. Attach the assembly using the screws provided and
ensure the assembly is rigid.
4. Connect the harness to the ATU harness at the 9-pin
round connector.
5. Test switch functionality using the ATU diagnostic
screens to ensure proper operation.
NOTE: The switch direction can be changed by
disassembling the plastic enclosure and flipping
the switch mount direction if necessary.
Panel Mounting:
1. Find a suitable panel mount location in the cab or
operator’s station for the switch that will be out of the
way of normal vehicle operation.
NOTE: Harnessing will also need to be routed so it does
not interfere with any vehicle functions performed
by the operator.
Use clips provided to secure harnesses.
2. Disassemble the switch from the plastic enclosure by
removing the (4) screws.
