1 Radio/tape Cd Player problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2019

My car has bluetooth capabilities and my device was connected until oct 2018. When I press the button, mutes radio. Computer never responds, "ready". I also noticed that onstar is no longer working. Does not make a noise when blue button is pressed. I looked up symptoms and noticed there was a bulletin for this exact issue 08-08-46-008 a/b. Dealership says there is no software to be updated and I've tried multiple phones and prior to determining if my device is compatible, the computer must respond when following the set up rules.
