Default Question and wiring diagram needed

I am needing a wiring diagram for an 08 Vert' ignition/start system.

Will the C6 start and run without the Onstar antenna and radio (Bose system)?

Thanks

I honestly don't know if it will start without the radio.

Thanks for the diagram. Can someone unplug their radio and see if their car will start? I really kidding unless someone would. It may clear up my start problem. I will run down a factory radio to plug in and see as well.

Thanks

By "start", do you mean actually fire or are you simply talking about cranking?

Right now I would be happy to here it turn over, actual fire and run can come later. I have traveled to Orlando where the car is and will be with it Monday so I will be able to better describe the symptoms. As of now when the car recognizes the fob and you push the start button it just clunks for a milisec and all systems shut down. I can unhook the battery and reconnect all accessories come back on till you push the start button again.

Assuming you've checked the battery and it's fine, it sounds like the BCM's anti-theft circuit is doing its job.
