VCIM Swap for Bluetooth Capability

[Marioski]

Placed the finishing touch on my install. Upgraded steering wheel switch from a 09 with bluetooth

(yes I know I need to clean my Weather Techs)


Okay someone riddle me this. Pressing the bluetooth button (holding mute down for 2 seconds to get voice recognition) while in Drive and Moving the phrase "on star" does not work. (so you can further use Call and your stored name phrase) But when stopped or in Park it works. Is this working as designed cause that seems half ass retarded.

What's the difference in the two? Mines an 08 and looks like the one in your picture I think.

right side middle button shows a face speaking and a phone. His OEM one doesn't show that. It might not be just from 09, but I know the sticker on that button is the difference

I never even noticed it before. Is there any functioning difference or merely the look? I'm a bit **** so I may grab a newer one like this myself.

lol. No difference at all, just the look. I would have to have that button instead of my current button if I did the VCIM swap

Nope no functioning difference at all. Just my OCD kicking in knowing there's a button on there for it and now that I have a bluetooth VCIM it was kicking in over drive. LOL

Now that would be one hell of a mod!

Got mine in. From a 11silverado. Just connected the one purple antenna. Everything works even the on star map on the mobile app. They gave me no free minutes but three months free. I have the red light also.

Just installed my new vcim and my clock doesn't work now. Also the radio doesn't seem to turn off when I get out of the vehicle.

This happen to anyone?
