I don't have the manual, but making a guess it sounds like the connection to the resistor is bad (intermittent mechanical connection at the switch or resistor end or else a poor solder connection). If the resistor burned open it would not come back and suddenly work again.

thanks. I had doubts also that the resistor was open. But the dealer changed the resistor (C$218 parts + C$58 labor). nonethless. It's under GMPP with zero deductible so I didn't complain.
 
I once had the driver power seat not moving and it is fine when I brought it to the dealer. It's been fine ever since.

do you know where is the blower fan located? which connectors should I check. The dealer changed the resistor but didn't fix the problems.

Sorry,
 
As I mentioned previously I do not have the manual. Perhaps someone else can help, but since you're under warranty I'd have the dealer make good on his work (tell him to be sure to wiggle ALL the wiring and connections this time while checking the operation of the fan)

Remote no-start problem solved – special thanks to sqr5516 and comen47.
 
First I went to Autozone for a free scan – no codes were reported. From the comments on this forum the next best guess was the hood latch/switch. It may be a common problem since the dealer had the part in stock. I Installed the new assembly and now remote start functioning again.
 
To save some cash maybe should have just jumped the wires that sqr5516 mentioned and not gotten new part.

Outside temperature display by alsteck1

The outside temperature display on my "06 Maxx often gets "stuck" reading the same temp for hours even after the outside temp has changed by as much as 20 degrees. I know that this is normal to some extent. A couple of years ago I called my local dealer to ask about this and the guy on the other end explained that the display could be reset manually by holding down one button on the dash while pressing another button. Problem is, I can remember which buttons and a call back to the same dealer brought the following reaction: duh! Does anybody know the details to this little trick?

My 2007 malibu maxx keeps arming itself and i go to the manual and do everything the manual says and it still wont disarm itself. It causes my battery to die and i have to jump it to get it started. sometimes that doesn't even work. I don't know what to do.

Instrument panel lamp burned out by frayedgnot
Nov 29, 2009 (11:58 am)

Does anyone know if you can replace an instrument panel lamp? The top right portion of my 2004 instrument panel is dark. The dimmer adjusts the other portions of the panel just fine and all other interior lamps, but this one section is dark. I think the instruments are back-lit by LED, and those are sometimes hard-wired to the cluster on other cars. I'm hoping I don't have to change out the whole thing, just wanted to ask before taking everything apart to look.
