  1. Connect the Tech 2 to the vehicle.
  2. Connect the Techline Information System (TIS) terminal to the Tech 2.
  3. Select the OnStar Activation programming option using the service programming system (SPS).
  4. Upon completion of the OnStar Activation programming event, disconnect the TIS terminal from the Tech 2 and perform the VCIM/OnStar Set-up Procedure using the Tech 2. The set up procedure is located under the special function menu option.
  5. The default language for the new VCIM is English. Changing the language capability to French or Spanish is supported by service programming system (SPS) and by Tech 2 special functions. Changing the language capability is also defendant on the generation of the replacement OnStar module.
