Barracuda Installation

1. After the radio has been removed, locate the

factory brown and black plugs that match those
found on the provided Plug & Play T-Harness
and connect them securely to the female side.

2. On the provided GPS Antenna Relay, splice the black wire to a ground (-) source and

connect the red wire to OUTPUT A (white/blue wire) from the
Barracuda module’s harness. This wire will be labeled.

Note: Be sure to program ‘OUTPUT A’ to ‘Antenna Interrupt’ so that the GPS

antenna signal is separated when VIM is active. (See Programming)

3. Locate the factory GPS antenna cable (usually blue) and connect it to the turquoise

connector on the provided GPS Antenna Relay.

4. Connect the provided GPS Antenna Extension to the yellow

connector of the GPS Antenna Relay, and the free end back to

the radio.

5. If not adding any additional cameras, keep both the black RCA’s connected together,

otherwise you will lose the factory rear camera image.

6. If forced factory rear camera (viewing camera image at any time) is desired:
a. Locate the factory rear camera module (usually under pass seat or rear section

of vehicle) or BCM (usually mounted near the drivers firewall)

b. Locate the blue reverse 12v wire which runs to the camera module, cut it in half
c. Extend the Blue wire (PIN 12) from the Barracuda’s main harness to the camera

module/BCM

d. Connect the Barracuda’s Blue wire to the camera module side of the cut wire

e. Insulate the other end of the cut wire to prevent a short!

7. If adding an additional front camera, the RCA’s must be connected differently than

step 5 (See the diagrams on page 5 for visual aid). Power for the front camera can be
connected to OUTPUT B (white/orange wire). Be certain to program OUTPUT B for
‘Front Camera’ if using white/orange wire.

8. Connect the Barracuda module to the 18-pin plug located on the Plug & Play T-Harness.

9. Proceed to Barracuda Programming (page 6).
