Global Positioning System Module: Service and Repair
COMMUNICATION INTERFACE MODULE REPLACEMENT
REMOVAL PROCEDURE
1. Remove the right rear compartment trim.
IMPORTANT: The vehicle communication interface module (VCIM) has a specific set of unique numbers that tie the module to each vehicle. These

identify the specific vehicle. Because these numbers are tied to the vehicle identification number of the vehicle, you must never exchange these parts
with those of another vehicle.
2. Remove the nuts (2) securing the OnStar(R) module (1) to the vehicle body.
3. Disconnect all the electrical connectors from the module.
4. Remove the module from the vehicle.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

on the new VCIM.
2. Reconnect the electrical connectors the module.
