Audio/Bluetooth/PDIM FAQ

[SeaWolfLestat]

The key.....and what I kept not doing before is....you have to choose AUX before you go to pair the device.

I have a 2013 2SS/RS and a iphone 5. When I first got the Camaro I could stream Pandora through the phone using only Bluetooth, no cords hooked up to phone. This stopped working last summer and a trip to the dealer did not get it fixed. Is this a GM software problem or a Apple software problem? Getting a phone call still works, just not music.

If I have the USB port does that mean I have bluetooth?

PDIM is not compatible with 2013+ models. I assume it was GM switching over to mylink for everything but the LS.

Been waiting for your conclusion?

[Cms3717]

They canceled the order, The site stock wasn't updated:/ Ended up having to get the 20985421. Now the USB doesn't work at all. But my Samsung Galaxy Tab S will pair. But if I had to choose, I'll keep the tab. I wired in an "Always On" usb plug up behind the glove box for my phone and tablet to run 24/7 if needed.

I HATE not being able to leave my phone in my car to charge. Problem solved.

What's the easiest way to stream music via BT on a 2015 2LS ?

As stated hundreds of times before, plugging into the AUX port sucks.

[TwentyTen2SSRS]

Have 2010 2SS here. Have used my streaming for Audi quite often for Pandora etc. however I went out to my car today and when I went to pair by pressing the "aux/cd" button it just says "no cd inserted" and won't scroll to aux at all, just back to the radio.

It's like it just disappeared. My Phone blue tooth is still hooked up, but now no way for me to even see the GMMusicConnect or get to the aux screen to select and connect device for BT streaming.

What gives?

Anyone have anything I can check? Where is PDIM located? Could it really of just shorted out?

Any help is appreciated, I used this feature a ton and don't know why or how t would just disappear..

Does anybody know what the latest PDIM P/N is? I've been trying to order 22797218 with absolutely no luck. Several websites show it available for order, but all the orders that I've placed have been canceled. I understand that this part is no longer available from GM, but I was hoping to find some old stock somewhere. I wouldn't think that GM would have discontinued this part without having an alternative available. If there's not a higher level part available, does anyone know what the next highest level P/N would be?

Thanks,
Rocky

If you want the best sound, don't use Bluetooth. Use the USB cable.

Well, since I got no replies, I think I'll reply to myself. My local dealer was able to locate 2 P/N 22797218 PDIMs in the entire country. They gave me the phone numbers of both dealers who had them and I called them both and got the run around. The first dealer had no problem selling me the part, but claimed he had no way to ship it. The 2nd dealer had no problem shipping, but didn't want to take a debit/credit card. They wanted me to mail them a personal check and they would ship me the part after my check cleared the bank. I went back to my local dealer, had them get the part from the 2nd dealer and then I bought it from them.

The good news is that there's one more of these out there, if anybody still wants one. The bad news is that you will have to drive to the dealership, somewhere in North Carolina to pick it up.

Update: I installed the PDIM last week and it did indeed correct almost all the issues that I had with the old one. Now when I start the car, it picks back up where it left off and retains all the settings. They only issue is that it still re-indexes every time the cars re-starts, but since it retains all settings, that's not nearly the issue that it was. The main reason that the re-index was such of a problem was that you couldn't select anything while it was indexing. Now that it retains all the settings, you don't need to select anything while it's indexing.
