Correction
DO NOT REPLACE THE RADIO.
Reprogram the radio with the latest available calibrations. These calibrations will be available on TIS 2 Web on April 3, 2006. These calibrations will also be available on the TIS 4.0 2006 CD and satellite broadcast later in April.
Important: Chevrolet and Pontiac dealers -- DO NOT use pass-thru programming from the CD or satellite broadcast.
Refer to Radio Setup in SI for more information on reprogramming the radio.
After reprogramming, use the Tech 2® to confirm the correct VIN is in the radio. If the correct VIN is not in the radio, XM will be disabled.
Dealer Action
• Please contact all customers that were told they would be called when a repair became available.
• Distribute this information to all dealership technicians and service advisors.
GM bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, NOT a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform these technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions, and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, DO NOT assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See your GM dealer for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
