IMPORTANT:
- It is important to have the vehicle in an open outside area where a cellular call can be successfully placed and GPS data can be received from satellites.
- Placing an emergency call to the OnStar® Call Center should only be made if the diagnosis of the system leads to step 3. Immediately after an OnStar® advisor picks up the call, they should be told that this call is for diagnostic purposes only and there is no emergency.
- Press the OnStar® Call Center button. Verify a connection is not made with the OnStar® Call Center.
- If a connection is made with the OnStar® Call Center, go to Diagnostic Aids.
- Listen for other tones or cellular messages rather than the normal progression tones or the Unable to Contact OnStar® prompt.
- If no other tones or cellular messages are heard other than the normal progression tones or the Unable to Contact OnStar® prompt, go to Component Testing.
- Record all messages heard from the OnStar® Call Center button press.
- Press the OnStar® emergency button. Verify a connection to the OnStar® Call Center is made within 10 minutes.
- If a connection is not made within specified time, go to Component Testing.
- Hear all messages during the course of the tests available, use the scan tool to access the STID, ESN and Transceiver I.D. and contact the General Motors Technical Assistance Center.
