Circuit/System Testing

without Navigation System

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the GPS and cellular coax cable connector at the K73 Telematics Communication Interface Control Module.
2. Using the EL-49903  OnStar Antenna Diagnostic Tool Kit , connect the EL-49903-3 antenna to the K73 Telematics Communication Interface Control Module. Place the test antenna on the roof of the vehicle, ignition ON.
3. Verify that an OnStar advisor can locate the vehicle after performing a blue button press.
   • If the advisor can not locate the vehicle 

     Replace the K73 Telematics Communication Interface Control Module.

   • If the advisor can locate the vehicle 
4. Ignition OFF, disconnect the EL-49903  GM OnStar antenna diagnostic tool kit from the K73 Telematics Communication Interface Control Module
5. Disconnect the K73 Telematics Communication Interface Control Module coax at the T4G Cellular Phone, Navigation, and Digital Radio Antenna.
6. Test the coax cable between the K73 Telematics Communication Interface Control Module and the T4G Cellular Phone, Navigation, and Digital Radio Antenna. Refer to component testing.
   • If the coax cable does not pass the test 

     Replace the coax cable.

   • If the coax cable passes the test 
7. Test or replace the T4G Cellular Phone, Navigation, and Digital Radio Antenna.
