 youre soo out of the loop!when the cell companies are no longer required to offer analog cell signals, all analog only onstar vehicles will no longer have onstar. though, technically, i think onstar switched off it's analog network on Jan 1, 2008, now that i think about it, but for regular analog service, feb 18th, companies are allowed to shut down service. --- if you have a home alarm system, make sure it's able to use hardline or digital radio/cell.... | |

iTrader: (5) | Re: It's coming! Well, if its useless, I might as well yank it all out. What does all that weigh? LOL. I might get a 50/50 balance yet, LOL. I was initially thinking how in hades is a 2001 system analog, surely its digital. But then it dawns on me, that was 7 years ago.

even some of the digital/analog systems in 03-04 vehicles are dead too. but yeah, you could probably just pick up a compass/temp mirror off ebay without the onstar and swap it out. --- should be similar to late 90's gm trucks. | |

iTrader: (5) | Re: It's coming! I think there was an option for just the compass and temp. I'll check on it, but it wont hurt my feelings any if I hit the onstar button and get a busy signal or something.
