Onstar fuse location?

Hi everyone,

 

I have a 2022 Sierra and I’m having a very first world issue. My GMC app does not communicate with my OnStar. The reason why I generally use it is when I am trying to remote start my truck from outside of key fob range.  
 

The OnStar Green Light does not show so the telephone customer service has told me I need to go to the dealer. Before taking my truck to the dealer and wasting a morning, I’d rather take the take out the fuse and see if that will reset the OnStar. Therefore, I am looking for the fuse that controls the OnStar. I saw another where they indicated that it was F 23 however, this is for the prior model and this space is empty on my truck. 
 

thanks.

try pressing the onstar button to see if it connects. Onstar had dropped my service after the demo period and my truck was paid for 3 years of remote service (remote start, unlock, lock, etc) with the original build sheet. I just had to call onstar and they corrected the problem in 5 minutes and it was activated and good to go. Usually the green light being out is 1 of 3 things wrong, either you have no service being detected due to a bad cell service area from AT&T, the roof antenna is faulty, or you simply do not have an active subscription so onstar cut you off.

Thanks for the replies. Tried removing the negative lead for 10 minutes. No luck.
 

Tried pushing the Onstar button. no green light. Service is paid for.

Your communication module probably failed.  Pretty common issue.  Dealer will have to replace it.

I know this is a very old post but i just bought a used ‘23 Sierra Denali and like yours, no light, no reply pushing the button and when i call Onstar they say go to the dealer. Also like you, i have no desire to waste time at the dealer. In my other GM vehicles Onstar always comes on when you push the button whether you have an active account or not.  They just won’t help you unless you pay them.

 

Thanks

I have a 2023 and I’m experiencing the same issue.  I can’t locate the fuse to check it.  Does anyone know the o star fuse location and number?

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
