Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas accepts cheat words during normal gameplay on PC. Type a code directly on the keyboard without opening the pause menu or a console. The codes below are for PC; console editions use button sequences.
Create a separate manual save first. Cheats can disable achievements in Definitive Edition, and several pedestrian, gang, traffic, or riot effects may remain in a saved game. Use cheats for a temporary session, then reload the clean save before continuing the story.
Health, money, weapons, and player abilities
| Effect | PC code |
|---|---|
| Health, armor, and $250,000 | HESOYAM |
| Very high damage resistance | BAGUVIX |
| Infinite oxygen underwater | CVWKXAM |
| Never becomes hungry | AEDUWNV |
| Infinite ammunition; no reload | FULLCLIP |

| Minimum fat and muscle | KVGYZQK |
| Maximum respect | WORSHIPME |
| Maximum sex appeal | HELLOLADIES |
| Mega jump | KANGAROO |
| Mega punch | STINGLIKEABEE |
| Adrenaline mode | ANOSEONGLASS |
| Jetpack | ROCKETMAN |
| Parachute | AIYPWZQP |
| Suicide | GOODBYECRUELWORLD |
BAGUVIX is often called “infinite health,” but it does not protect CJ from every hazard. Drowning, large falls, explosions, and certain scripted damage can still be fatal.
Wanted-level cheats
| Effect | PC code |
|---|---|
| Increase wanted level by two stars | TURNUPTHEHEAT |
| Clear current wanted level | TURNDOWNTHEHEAT |
| Lock wanted level / never wanted | AEZAKMI |
| Set wanted level to six stars | BRINGITON |
Spawn vehicles
| Vehicle | PC code |
|---|---|
| Rhino tank | AIWPRTON |
| Hydra jet | JUMPJET |
| Hunter helicopter | OHDUDE |
| Stunt plane | FLYINGTOSTUNT |
| Jetpack | ROCKETMAN |
| Monster truck | MONSTERMASH |
| Quad bike | FOURWHEELFUN |
| Vortex hovercraft | KGGGDKP |
| Dozer | ITSALLBULL |
| Tanker truck | AMOMHRER |
| Trashmaster | TRUEGRIME |
| Rancher | JQNTDMH |
| Romero hearse | WHERESTHEFUNERAL |
| Stretch limousine | CELEBRITYSTATUS |
| Bloodring Banger | OLDSPEEDDEMON |
| Hotring Racer 1 | VROCKPOKEY |
| Hotring Racer 2 | VPJTQWV |
| Caddie | RZHSUEW |
Use vehicle-spawn codes in a large open area. A plane, tank, or truck can become stuck or damage CJ if the surroundings are too tight.
Vehicle and traffic effects
| Effect | PC code |
|---|---|
| All cars have nitrous | SPEEDFREAK |
| Cars can fly | RIPAZHA |
| Boats can fly | FLYINGFISH |
| Cars float away when hit | BUBBLECARS |
| Destroy all vehicles | ALLCARSGOBOOM |
| Improved handling | STICKLIKEGLUE |
| Invisible car bodies | WHEELSONLYPLEASE |
| All traffic lights green | ZEIIVG |
| Aggressive drivers | YLTEICZ |
| Reduced traffic | GHOSTTOWN |
| Cheap traffic vehicles | EVERYONEISPOOR |
| Fast traffic vehicles | EVERYONEISRICH |
The invisible-cars code does not work in Definitive Edition. “Cars float away when hit” is not a big-head or “large boxes” effect, and ALLCARSGOBOOM explodes vehicles rather than making them fly.
Weather, time, and game speed
| Effect | PC code |
|---|---|
| Sunny weather | PLEASANTLYWARM |
| Very sunny weather | TOODAMNHOT |
| Overcast weather | ALNSFMZO |
| Rainy weather | AUIFRVQS |
| Foggy weather | CFVFGMJ |
| Thunderstorm | SCOTTISHSUMMER |
| Sandstorm | CWJXUOC |
| Always midnight | NIGHTPROWLER |
| Orange evening sky | OFVIAC |
| Faster game clock | YSOHNUL |
| Faster gameplay | SPEEDITUP |
| Slower gameplay | SLOWITDOWN |
Pedestrian, gang, and theme cheats
| Effect | PC code |
|---|---|
| Chaos mode | STATEOFEMERGENCY |
| Pedestrian riot | IOJUFZN |
| Pedestrians fight with golf clubs | AJLOJYQY |
| Pedestrians attack CJ with weapons | BGLUAWML |
| Armed pedestrians | FOOOXFT |
| Gang members everywhere | ONLYHOMIESALLOWED |
| Gangs control the streets | BIFBUZZ |
| Recruit anyone with a pistol | SJMAHPE |
| Recruit anyone with rockets | ROCKETMAYHEM |
| Beach-party theme | CIKGCGX |
| Elvis pedestrians | BLUESUEDESHOES |
| Ninja theme | NINJATOWN |
| Funhouse theme | CRAZYTOWN |
Do not save after enabling riots, hostile pedestrians, gang control, or theme cheats. These can alter NPC behavior needed by missions, and entering the code again may not fully repair the game state.
If a code does not work
- Enter the code during active single-player gameplay, not in a menu or cutscene.
- Check the spelling. Capitalization usually does not matter, but every letter does.
- Confirm that you are using a PC word code rather than a console sequence.
- Some effects were removed from Definitive Edition for technical reasons.
- Reload a clean save instead of testing several world-changing cheats in your main file.
