3. Ignition ON, wait 5 minutes, then contact the OnStar call center consultant by pressing the blue OnStar button. A call center consultant
should answer the call, ask the consultant to verify the vehicle location to confirm the GPS system is functioning.
瀚慖f the OnStar GPS does not function, replace the K73 telematics communication interface module.
4. Ignition OFF, perform the coax cable test on the coax cable, refer to Component Testing. The coax cable should pass the test.
瀚慖f the coax cable does not pass the test, replace the coax cable.
5. If all circuits test normal, replace the T4 cellular phone and navigation antenna.
Component Testing
Caution: Refer to Test Probe Caution (See: Service Precautions/Vehicle Damage Warnings/Test Probe Caution).
Note: Before testing the coax cable, check the cable exterior for being pinched, cut, damaged, or having loose connections at the components,
which can cause reception issues.
To prevent false reading when testing the center coax terminals, use care not to ground the test probe on the outer housing/shield.
Coax Cable Test
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the GPS and cellular phone coax cable at both components.
2. Test both for less than 5 ohm between both ends of the coax cables center terminals.
瀚慖f greater than the specified range, replace the failed coax cable.
3. Test for greater than 10k ohm between the coax cable center wire and the outer coax shield.
瀚慖f less than the specified range, replace the coax cable.
