This bulletin is being issued to revise the reconfiguration procedure found in the Communication Interface Module Replacement procedure in the
Cellular Communications sub-section of the Service Manual.
Please replace the current information in the Service Manual with the following information.
The following information has been updated within SI. If you are using a paper version of this Service Manual, please make a reference to this bulletin
on the affected page.
Due to a new process for configuring replacement Generation 4 (formerly F1) OnStar(R) modules for the OnStar(R) Personal Calling feature, vehicles
equipped with this version of the system will require a revised OnStar(R) Reconfiguration procedure in the event of module replacement. In addition, the
Station Identification Number (STID) and Electronic Serial Number (ESN) numbers are currently accessible by means of the scan tool.
Important:
After replacing the vehicle communication interface module, you must reconfigure the OnStar(R) system. Failure to reconfigure the system will result
in an additional customer visit for repair.
In addition, pressing and holding the white dot button on the keypad will NOT reset this version of the OnStar(R) system. This action will cause a DTC
to set.
1.
Install the scan tool. Use the special functions menu in order to perform the OnStar(R) setup procedure for this vehicle.
2.
Move the vehicle to an open area that is away from tall buildings and with a clear view of unobstructed sky. Allow the vehicle to run for 10
minutes.
3.
Use the ID information menu on the scan tool to access the new Station ID (STID) and the electronic serial number (ESN) and from the new
VCIM.
4.
Press the blue OnStar(R) button to connect to the OnStar(R) Call Center. Tell the advisor that this vehicle has received a new VCIM and ask the
advisor to perform the following procedure:
5.
Add the new STID and the ESN to update the customer's account.
6.
Follow any additional instructions from the OnStar(R) advisor.
7.
Ask the advisor to activate the OnStar(R) Personal Calling feature, if available.
