Firmware Over The Air
The Firmware Over The Air feature was designed to reflash software remotely. Remote reflash is an in-vehicle feature that enables the installation of a software package to update the infotainment system without requiring service test equipment to be physically connected to the vehicle. Remote reflash will utilize a long range or short range connection from the host module to a remote IT system. There must be an active OnStar® account to receive Over The Air programming or updates. To verify the status of the account perform a blue button press and verify the account is active and connects with data and location. Customers need to accept the OnStar® terms and conditions, and must have an active OnStar® account to receive any Over The Air programming or updates.
A data plan is not required to receive Over The Air programming or updates. Also the programming or updates do not consume a customers available data.
Fleet vehicles must be activated as a Fleet account (not a business account) and require a separate Terms and Conditions agreement to be completed. Please consult your fleet administrator for assistance with completing this agreement.
