Circuit/System Description

The Bluetooth Module is a mobile device that is powered by battery positive voltage and ground from a break-out harness connected to the radio connector; and Ignition I voltage from a mini fuse adaptor connected to the terminal connection of fuse F6DA at the instrument cluster fuse box. It allows a cordless link between a mobile telephone and the vehicle Bluetooth communication system. The Bluetooth Module is not connected to the GMLAN system. It communicates with the mobile telephone via low-power radio waves. Due to the low power of the signal, about 1 milliwatt, a mobile telephone must be within 10 metres (32 feet) of the vehicle Bluetooth module to connect and operate.

Diagnostic Aids

The following is a brief description of potential causes which may aid in diagnosis:

    • Ignition is turned OFF. Make sure to turn ON ignition when using Bluetooth communication.
    • The mobile phone is not paired to the Bluetooth module. Make sure to pair the mobile phone to the Bluetooth module. Refer to Bluetooth Communication Description and Operation : Holden Genuine Accessory .
    • The Bluetooth communication is already connected to another paired mobile phone. Make sure to turn OFF other paired mobile phone(s) in the vehicle.
    • Automatic connection not set on mobile phone. Ensure authorised connection is enabled for Bluetooth communication. Refer to owner handbook of the mobile phone.
    • The mobile phone does not support Bluetooth connection.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Ignition ON, Radio On, press the Bluetooth switch 4 times. A series of chimes must be heard from the radio speakers.

2. Ignition ON, activate the Bluetooth function on a mobile telephone with a known to be operating Bluetooth function, and search for Bluetooth devices. The mobile phone must be able to pick up a device labelled GM.BT.

Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the Bluetooth module.
  2. Test for less than 1.0 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 15 and ground.
  3. If greater than the specified value, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  4. Ignition OFF, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 8 and ground.
  5. If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
  6. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 7 and ground.
  7. If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
  8. Ignition OFF, connect the harness connector at the Bluetooth module.
  9. Ignition OFF, disconnect the Bluetooth patch harness connector X1 at the Radio.
  10. Ignition ON, test for 3.5-4.5 V between the following terminals:
  11. • 204 and ground
    • 6 and ground
    If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the Bluetooth module.
    If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the Bluetooth module.
  12. Ignition OFF, connect the Bluetooth patch harness connector X1 at the Radio. Disconnect the harness connector at the Bluetooth microphone.
  13. Ignition ON, test for 2.5-3.5 V between the signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.
  14. If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the Bluetooth module.
    If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the Bluetooth module.
  15. If all tests are normal and a mobile telephone with a known to be operating and supported Bluetooth function fail to pair or communicate, replace the Bluetooth module.

Component Testing

Bluetooth Switch Tests

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the Bluetooth switch.
  2. Test for infinite resistance between the following terminals:
  3. • 3 and 1
    • 3 and 2
    If not the specified value, replace the Bluetooth switch.
  4. Bluetooth switch pressed, test for 650-700 Ω between terminals 3 and 1.
  5. If the resistance is not within the specified range, replace the Bluetooth switch assembly.
  6. Bluetooth switch pressed, test for 6.2-6.8 kΩ between terminals 3 and 2.
  7. If the resistance is not within the specified range, replace the Bluetooth switch assembly.

Repair Instructions

For component removal and installation refer to the Accessory Fitting Instructions. Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
