Bluetooth configuration settings missing

Asked by Mzbbdool Mar 02, 2019 at 11:42 AM about the 2012 Chevrolet Equinox 2LT AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

It got really cold here in Michigan and I noticed my
Bluetooth wasn't connecting to my 2012 Chevrolet
Equinox any longer.  I unpaired them to see if
repairing would make a difference but now I notice
there are no phone options under config and when
I press the phone icon nothing happens.  Any
solutions out there to this problem?

I am having the exact same issue right now. I have tried googling and YouTube, but can’t find anything. It’s been like this for a month now.

I'm having the same issue as well. I'm going to the car dealership tomorrow to see what they say and let you know what they tell me.

I went to the dealership today and my issue is the communication interface module.

Did they have to replace the radio? What does this mean? Because I have issues with it intermittently connecting the satellite radio, but this Blue tooth issue is new. i have no Blue tooth connectivity to the vehicle at all and cannot re-pair because blue tooth is not available. Please advise

Janicerner: I'm not sure if the commination interface module has anything to do with the satellite radio but all I know is to get my Bluetooth and compass to come back is to either replace the module or get in there myself and see if a wire came loose when I hit a pothole.

I have a 2012 Equinox that had the same issue at around the same time. It's worked for 6+ years and now nothing happens when i press the "phone" icon. Was this ever answered?

Same thing happened to me 4 days ago. I unhooked the battery, waited 10sec, unlocked/locked the doors with my FOB just to make sure all electricity was depleted from the system . Hooked everything back up. Bluetooth was back i just had to re-pair the phone
