Default Bluetooth

Hello all, I own a 2009 C6 and my problem is with my Bluetooth phone. I pull into the garage, shut the ignition, open the door, and go into the house. An hour later I get a call on my cell and it is broadcasting in the garage from my car. I have tried getting out and pressing the lock button but it still broadcasts over the car speakers. The only way I can stop it is to shut the Bluetooth off on the phone when I exit the car.

Any Help out there?

Thank YouChuck

Just this week my '09 ZR1 started doing the same thing. In fact, the battery was low after being parked for four days.

When I shut it off and go inside, the cell phone is still connected to the car - it doesn't shut off after climbing out.

When I get far enough away from the car, it disconnects. But it will reconnect by itself if I walk back into range.

Anyone have this experience of any ideas of what to look for?

Thanks, and happy new year.

Strange one here if a OEM radio, since the radio should be shutting of as soon as you hit the door button with the car shut off.

So either the OEM radio is not shutting off, or something is bringing it back on from a hibernation mode when it receives a blue tooth call.


On the positive note, it a Vet with too many eclectic systems that can go astray from time to time and need to be reset, so disconnect a battery cable for a few mins to allow all the system to reset with no power to the car (including the radio), reconnect the battery cable, and see if that solves the problem.

Also, when you connect the battery again, re-index the windows. To do this, roll one of the windows up and hold the button in the up position for the count of 3, release it, and hold it up for another 3 count. Now do the other side the same way, and you have just re-indexed both windows.
