IMPORTANT:
  • It is necessary 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.
  • The vehicle should be located in a quiet area.
  1. Ignition ON, press OnStar® Call button. Verify that your voice is heard clearly by the OnStar® Call Center.
  2. Press the OnStar® Call answer button. Attempt to operate the OnStar® system using multiple different voice commands. Verify the system responds appropriately to all voice commands.
    • If the OnStar® system does not respond to any voice commands, replace the CIM.
