On the Subject of GTA Cheats

You have 5 stars. You’ve got to run. No Car. No Weapons ... Just Cheat!

  • To disarm the module you have to use the correct cheats to reach exactly 0 stars.
  • Follow the instructions in the table below from top to bottom based on the number of stars present on the module.
  • Once you find the correct instruction, use the CheatSheet on the next page to find the correct input sequence to press.
  • If you press a wrong button, a strike will be incurred and 1 star will be added.
  • If you remove more stars than those present on the module, the exceeding stars will be added back.

    (Example: If you have 2 stars and you remove 3 stars, you will have 1 star remaining)

Attention!

Every cheat removes a fixed number of stars.

That number of stars will always increase by 1 if the first button of the input is pressed when the seconds timer contains the number obtain from the following operation:

highest # in the serial + ( # batteries × current # of stars ) - # battery holders

(If this yields a two-digit number, sum up the digits until you have a one-digit number)
