CANADIAN UPGRADE PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Canadian wireless service providers plan to decommission their 2G Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) network through 2015. OnStar® currently depends on active and functioning 2G CDMA networks to deliver services. As a result, in order to continue to provide OnStar® services without interruption, Canadian vehicles that do not have OnStar® 3G/4G LTE will need a hardware upgrade.
In order to upgrade their vehicle hardware and continue receiving OnStar® services, a customer will receive a letter from OnStar® with instructions for the upgrade process when the hardware is available for installation on their vehicle. There are different versions of hardware required for vehicles that will be available at different times in early 2015, so it is important that customers first receive the communication from OnStar® to begin the upgrade process.
Refer to PI1533 for additional repair instructions that may be required for select models to ensure proper handsfree voice recognition performance.
Canadian OnStar® equipped vehicles travelling into the United States are to be serviced as would any U.S. vehicle while visiting, or relocating, to the United States. Follow normal diagnostic and repair procedures to support customer satisfaction regardless of vehicle point of origin.

SOFTWARE ISSUES RELATED TO THIS BULLETIN:
Issue #1
Issue Description:
After Gen 9.4 CDMA EOL Upgrade the vehicle will not be capable of a door lock/unlock from an OnStar Advisor. Unlock service for the customer will be provided with Roadside Assistance, which is included in all paid OnStar Service Plans. There is no impact to customer key FOB functionality.
Cause:
The vehicle requires discrete signal to operate the door locks. This functionality was not turned on in the design of the hardware and cannot be fixed.
Customer Questions:
If the customer has further questions or concerns about the loss of the door lock/unlock functionality, they may call the OnStar CDMA End Of Life (EOL) Team at 877-935-8717.

SERVICE INFORMATION
For Vehicle MY 2011 and Above, Follow the Instructions Listed Below:
-
NOTE:
- 2013-2015 Vehicles with radio RPO's IO3, IO4, IO5, IO6, or (RAO-UA3) (ATS Base Radio) Ensure that the radio has the latest calibration available on TIS2WEB prior to proceeding with the OnStar® cellular communication upgrade. As stated previously in this bulletin, the "Audio Soft Version" label should be 000474 or lower before continuing. If version 000477 is already installed, reprogramming is not necessary. DO NOT reprogram. Software corruption may occur.IMPORTANT:
The radio calibration update will erase or reset some customer radio and/or vehicle settings to factory default.
- The colors of the cable in the images in the instructions listed below may not depict the colors of the cables received. The use of colored cables are for illustration purposes only. Technician will verify VIN and customer information on Kit with VIN of installation vehicle (do not install hardware if VIN does not match).
IMPORTANT:Certain OnStar® equipped vehicles may be equipped with a back-up battery. The back-up battery is a non-rechargeable, lithium battery intended to provide an auxiliary power source for the telematics communication interface module in the event of a vehicle collision where power from the main vehicle battery is lost. Disconnecting power to the OnStar® module in any way while the ignition is ON or with retained accessory power (RAP) activated may cause activation of the OnStar® Back-Up Battery. Once the Back-Up Battery is activated it will stay on until the power is restored back to the telematics communication interface control module. The back-up battery is not rechargeable and once discharged below a specified voltage threshold the back-up battery must be replaced.
- MAKE SURE IGNITION IS OFF AND RAP IS DEACTIVATED PRIOR TO REMOVAL OF THE ONSTAR® MODULE.
To access the OnStar® module, refer to the Service Information (SI) for the appropriate procedure. - 2013-2015 Vehicles with radio RPO's IO3, IO4, IO5, IO6, or (RAO-UA3) (ATS Base Radio) Ensure that the radio has the latest calibration available on TIS2WEB prior to proceeding with the OnStar® cellular communication upgrade. As stated previously in this bulletin, the "Audio Soft Version" label should be 000474 or lower before continuing. If version 000477 is already installed, reprogramming is not necessary.
