Condition
Some customers may comment that the Terms and Conditions (T&Cs) Agreement page
is displayed repetitively. This may also cause some of the following embedded apps to
lack some, or all, functionality:
• WiFi Hotspot
• Navigation
• Voice Recognition
• User Profile
When the condition occurs, it begins to create a backlog of messages it cannot send out
to the server. This process repeats, and the backlog continues to grow in number. The
backlog must be cleared to allow the current accepted T&Cs to be acknowledged at the
server.
Cause The cause of the condition may be a radio calibration anomaly.
Correction Reprogram the A11 radio. If necessary, clear any backlog of previous T&Cs messages.
Service Procedure
Note: Stable battery voltage is critical during
programming. Any fluctuation, spiking, over voltage or
loss of voltage will interrupt programming. Install a GM
Authorized Programming Support Tool to maintain
system voltage. Refer to www.gmdesolutions.com for
further information. If not available, connect a fully
charged 12 V jumper or booster pack disconnected
from the AC voltage supply. DO NOTconnect a battery
charger.
1. Reprogram the A11 radio. Be sure both
programming events (Radio Programming and
USB File Transfer) are performed. Refer to A11
Radio: Programming and Setup in SI.
2. After completing the A11 radio programming, allow
the radio to process two full sleep cycles:
2.1. Turn off the ignition, open and close the driver
door and allow the vehicle to sit undisturbed
for 5 minutes.
2.2. Open the door, turn on the ignition and allow
the radio to complete its boot sequence.
Repeat step 2.1 for a total of two sleep cycles.
3. Verify the repair.
3.1. Is the OnStar LED on and green?
3.2. Does the OnStar app populate with Account
Information?
3.3. Access Apps in the Radio menu. Does the
Apps catalog populate with available apps?
3.4. If the answer is “No” to any question above,
contact the GM Technical Assistance Center,
selecting the OnStar team for further
instruction.

Reprogramming
GM Diagnostic/Programming (TIS2Web)
Approved J2534 Device with TIS2WEB can reprogram 1996 and later All GM Modules.
To obtain the latest electronic controller calibration information for your vehicle, go to https://tis2web.service.gm.com/tis2web and enter the vehicle's 17 character Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and select 'Get CAL ID’.
You can then compare the latest part number with the actual number installed on the vehicle to determine if a reprogram is needed.
The Service Programming System (SPS) application is part of the TIS2Web system. To program an ECU, the SPS application must communicate with the vehicle control modules using the proper J2534 programming interface tool.
The Tech 2 supports model years 1996 and beyond. With the addition of the CAN Diagnostic Interface (CANdi) module, Tech 2 is fully backward compatible with current Tech 2 functionality and operates transparently when diagnosing non-CAN-equipped vehicles.
Servicing the next generation Global A vehicles will require the diagnostic software, GDS2, Global Diagnostic System 2 running on a local PC device while the MDI is connected to the vehicle. The GM MDI is the Global Diagnostic tool for future vehicles starting with Global A vehicles.
The GM MDI was introduced in the fall of 2007 for Pass-Thru programming and offers faster programming speed. It can be used to perform Pass-Thru programming on all vehicles built since 1996 and into the future. Click here to view a list of GDS supported vehicles.
