No Onstar

[luckylou]

2022 Tahoe. Onstar dead. No light. No communication. Speed limit readout on headsup display ... Direction indicator stuck on N. No nav.

I had this happen on my 2023 Suburban probably 8 months ago. Had to schedule with the dealership to get a new OnStar module installed. Don't bother calling OnStar as they won't help.

Should be covered under warranty.

Hassle but nothing else you can do.

Did you by chance go to the dealer recently for an unrelated software update?

I went to the dealer after OnStar had me shut off the vehicle and wait 5 minutes with the driver door open and then restart which did no good and they said to take it to the dealer because there was probably a loose connection. Had not had the software update yet. Service guy told me the software update would solve the problem. i didn't think so but didn't say anything because he may have been right? He wasn't. The module is on backorder. Says it will be here in a week to 10 days. Not holding my breath.
Thanks for the feedback. Will hopefully update in 7 to 10 days?
Hoping that this coincides with the arrival of the touch up paint that I ordered while I was there for $57+tax. 57 DOLLORS!!! WTW!!!!

What's that in dollars?

(I kid.)

Good luck, and keep us posted.

Found the touchup pen on gmpartsdirect for 15.78 dullers +19.01 shipping and cancelled the 57 dealer order. One other site wanted $65 shipping? Not!

You can get the same touch up paint by Dupla color for around 23 bucks at autozone or Advance auto etc. by dupli color. Same stuff.

They told me several weeks for backorder when I had to get it replaced but it came within a week.

Hope yours comes sooner too. Good luck.
