Diagnostic Instructions
Circuit/System Description
The vehicle navigation radio and OnStar® system both utilize the cellular microphone to receive voice commands. The navigation radio receives an audio voice signal from the communication interface module (CIM).

Circuit/System Verification
Ignition ON, verify the OnStar® voice recognition is operating normally.
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the CIM.
- Ignition ON, test for 8.5-9.5 volts between the mono out signal circuit terminal 1 and ground.
⇒ | If less than specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio. |
⇒ | If greater than specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio. |
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 10 ohms between the mono out low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio. |
- Ignition ON, test for 8.5-9.5 volts between the mono out signal circuit terminal 1 and the drain wire circuit terminal 8.
⇒ | If less than specified range, test the drain wire circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. |
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the radio.
- Verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between B+ and the mono out low reference circuit terminal 15.
⇒ | If the test lamp illuminates, test the low reference circuit for a short to ground. |
- If all circuits test normal, replace the CIM.
