Bulletin No.: Service Bulletin Date: 17-NA-346 February, 2019 INFORMATION Subject: Information on Antenna COAX Repair Kit Availability This Bulletin replaces PI0572C. Please discard PI0572C. Brand: Model: Buick Cadillac Chevrolet GMC GM Passenger Cars and Trucks Model Year: VIN: from to 2006 2017 Involved Region or Country from to Engine: Transmission: All All North America and N.A. Export Regions Repair Kit Availability COAX Cable Kits Important: These kits are to be used for antenna coax cables ONLY. They should not be used for any camera coax cable repairs because the connector ends are not sealed and could cause corrosion. GM has implemented a new service strategy that uses a set of universal coaxial repair kits to service vehicle antenna. This applies to cable used for high frequency signals, such as cellular (OnStar®), satellite radio (XM) and GPS (navigation) as well as the AM/FM signal. There are eight individual kits. Any given repair may require the use of one or more kits. OEM replacement cables should be used when the exact cable is available and replaceable. In other cases where they are not readily available or replaceable, it is acceptable to use the service cables below to complete repairs. The following eight kits are available for service: (1) — Communication Interface (OnStar®) Module Antenna Cable Kit (part number 13581174) 2706799 Consists of four different RG58LL cables in lengths of 18 inches (A), 3.5 feet (B), 5 feet (C) and 7 feet (D). This kit is used to replace the cables for carrying a cellular signal or a combined cellular and GPS signal. It is also referred to as the long run cellular kit. Copyright 2019 General Motors LLC.

Page 2 February, 2019 (2) — Digital Radio (XM) and Vehicle Locator (GPS) Antenna Coaxial Cable Kit (part number 13581173) 2706807 Bulletin No.: 17-NA-346 (4) — Digital Radio (XM), Mobile Telephone (OnStar) and Vehicle Locator (GPS) Antenna Cable (part number 13581153) 4887305 Consists of three different RG174 cables in lengths of 3.5 feet (A), 5 feet (B) and 7 feet (C) and is used to replace RG316 or RG174 satellite radio and GPS cables. It is also referred to as the long run XM/GPS kit. Consists of one 90 degree adapter cable to be used with any of the long length cable kits. Available individually and also as part of the Antenna Coaxial Cable Kit above (part number 19119056). (3) — Digital Radio (XM), Mobile Telephone (OnStar) and Vehicle Locator (GPS) Antenna Coaxial Cable Kit (part number 19119056) (5) — Communication Interface (OnStar) Module Antenna Cable Kit (part number 22803854) 2706816 2706814 Consists of many different connectors, housings and jumpers to mate into the connector housings. This kit may be used by itself to repair a connector or in conjunction with the long run kits to change the connector ends. It is also referred to as the connections kit. Consists of a 4-inch jumper for the mini-UHF connector that was used on several OnStar modules before the 2011 model year. Bulletin No.: 17-NA-346 February, 2019 Page 3 (6) — AM/FM Radio Antenna Cable Kit (part number 13593919) 4887308 Factory Antenna and Coax Connected 4887306 Consists of three different RG59 cables in lengths of 3.5 feet (1), 5 feet (2), and 7 feet (3). This kit is used to replace the cables for carrying an AM/FM signal. These cables are used to connect between the radio and any AM/FM antenna (mast, glass antenna amplifier, glass antenna module, or roof mounted antenna base). (7) — AM/FM/XM Connector Antenna Jumper with Dual Connector (part number 13593920) 4887310 Factory Antenna Disconnected and Service Jumper Net to It 4887307 Service Jumper Contents Page 4 February, 2019 Bulletin No.: 17-NA-346 Enclave, Express, Savana, and Traverse models with radio RPOs UG4, UGU, UUI, UHU, UJL, UGY, UGX, UI6, UI4, UUI, UI2, UI5, UI7, or UI8. This may be used on additional models as well as long as the connection is the same. COAX Cable Service Strategy 4887311 Factory Antenna with Service Jumper Plugged In Consists of one 4 inch universal antenna connector adaptor and a universal dual connector body. Typical application is to connect a single AM/FM coax cable to an existing dual connector at the antenna. Re-use the factory dual connector body, or use the water blue universal connector body if the original is not serviceable. (8) — AM/FM Radio Antenna Jumper Cable with Tyco Right-Angle Connector (part number 13594431) 4887312 Consists of one 90 degree adapter cable to be used with any of the long length cable kits. Typically used on 2006 – 2010 radios as well as all Acadia, Captiva, With this cable kit strategy, it is not necessary to remove old or bad coaxial cable from the vehicle. Using the long run kits, a new service cable should be routed in the vehicle from point A to point B. The cables should be secured with a combination of tie straps, electrical tape, and/or clips with foam or felt tape placed around the cable to prevent possible rattles. It may be necessary to combine various lengths of cables to create the needed length. If there is extra cable, it can be coiled around itself, but be sure not to bend the cables more than a 2 inch radius or damage could occur. By design, the cables have 1-way universal connectors on each end. If a different end is needed, use a jumper to connect from the 1-way connector on the service cable to the proper connector. If an in-vehicle connector is damaged, it may be possible to replace it with a new service connector housing from one of the available service kits. Kits will have mostly non-keyed water blue connectors for 1-way and 2-way styles. The 3-way connectors are color coded. In some cases, it will not be possible to replace only a connector. For these cases, run a long run cable and bypass the non-replaceable connector.

GM bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, NOT a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform these technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions, and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, DO NOT assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See your GM dealer for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information. WE SUPPORT VOLUNTARY TECHNICIAN CERTIFICATION
