Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 GMC Acadia, 2011 Chevrolet Traverse, and 2011 Buick Enclave. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
The vehicle may be equipped with sectioned coax. Test each section and replace only the faulty section, not the entire length of coax.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the GPS and cellular coax cable connector at the VCIM.
- Using the EL-49903-3 kit (EL-49903-5 adapter and EL-49903-4 coax cable), connect the EL-49903 GM OnStar antenna diagnostic tool kit to the VCIM.
- Clear the DTCs and operate the vehicle within the conditions for running the DTC. Verify DTC B2470 does not set.
- If the DTC sets, replace the VCIM.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the EL-49903
GM OnStar antenna diagnostic tool kit from the VCIM and perform the coax cable test on the coax cable between the VCIM and the radio antenna.
- If the coax cable does not pass the test, replace the coax cable.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the radio antenna.
