(GMT) and the offset is based on the time zones relationship to GMT.
If replacement of the VIU/VCIM is necessary, you MUST reconfigure the OnStar® system. Failure to reconfigure the system will result in an additional
customer visit for repair. OnStar® VIU, Generations 2 and 3, will require the technician to press the blue OnStar® button to reconfigure the vehicle with
an OnStar® advisor.
OnStar(R) VCIM, Generations 4-7 will require the technician to reconfigure the vehicle with the use of the TIS2WEB and SPS applications (pass thru
only), along with the Tech2(R).
The configuration and set-up procedure is a two-step process that must be completed step-by-step without interruption or delay in between each step.
This procedure enables an automated activation without a button press by the technician to the OnStar(R) Call Center. Following this procedure, it may
take up to 24 hours for all OnStar(R) services to be fully activated.
