Replying to: tony80 (Apr 30, 2008 7:19 am) ya my prob was exactly the same as urs.... Diagnose.... it was all related to the transmission stick lock nob and ignition lock..... Malfunction observed.... what was happening was when i use to park my car my transmission stick lock nob got stuck inside and with little effort i was able to remove the key from the dash board (which doesn't came back to off position and stuck inbetween on and off). so the system was not completely off and hence the battery got discharged and dash board start malfunctioning...... I recommend ... First, check ur transmission stick knob ..... it shoud give a click sound when it come back to it position after u put the trasmission stick on Parking or any other position... Second, check ur ignition lock... is it working gud.... bye n take care... |

Replying to: 04cad (Aug 09, 2007 11:52 am) I had the same problem with the keys for Wally's world on my 2003 Malibu classic. They cut a total of 5 of them (got my money back on them of course) but they wouldn't really work. One of them worked sometimes if I really jiggled it. I went to the local hardware store that had a different type of cutting machine and for $3.38 I got 2 keys that work just fine for the car. As for the key FOB. I called the dealer (that I just bought the car from) and after the verified that the car had keyless entry by checking the VIN they gave me the part number for the FOB (They wanted $89 for it). I bought 1 on ebay for $13 and was told by like 10 local locksmiths that I have to go to the dealer to get it programed. They want $87 to program it. and they said it only takes 20-30 minutes to do it. I called a few other local Chevy dealers and they all had a different price to program it. The cheapest was $47.50. |

I have an 2003 Malibu. I can not start my car due to the Anti-Theft. Does anyone have any ideas. Has anyone else had any problems like this? What about just cutting the wire to the theft system, does anyone think that will work. Your help is appreciated.
