I have a 2000 (new) Tahoe LT, When I push the onstar buttons it will not connect??

they've updated the system (from analog to digital) and yours (analog) will no longer work. You can update the OnStar system to digital if you'd like to.

I don't think the pre-2003 models can be updated. Some 03's weren't eligible either I believe.

Just did some searching....

All vehicles equipped with OnStar® listed in this bulletin were built with Analog-Only OnStar® Hardware. OnStar® equipped vehicles with analog-only equipment were designed to operate only on the analog wireless network and cannot be upgraded for digital network compatibility.

Vehicles with this equipment will no longer be able to receive OnStar® services beginning January 1, 2008. At that time, service will be available only through Dual-Mode (Analog / Digital) equipment. Analog-Only vehicles cannot be upgraded to digital equipment.

This means you're outta luck. You can purchase the OnStar FMV if you want
