Computer brain I have a 2005 Chevy Malibu. It ha died at red lights a couple of times but then restarted. Then it died at a red light, I put it in N and it wouldn't start. Pushed it to get gas (gauge doesn't work). Put it in park at the pump, filled it. Now it wont start, it wont come out of park and when I read the codes it says it can't communicate with the vehicle. There is fuel pressure. Already replaced the ignition switch and nothing changed.

No communication could be a problem with the engine computer or the main wiring harness. Does the check engine light come on when you turn the key on ?

SOURCE: oil light comes on when braking and temp gauge

Just dealing the with same problem. You need to take the car to have the electronics systems tested. Trust me it will save you a lot of time and frustration and it pays for itself because you don't end up guessing at parts. The oil pump can be tested at your local garage with a pump pressure sensor.

Need to replace the sensor inside the gas tank. I have a 2008 Malibu with the same problem. It was a faulty fuel gauge sensor.

I can't figure out where to put power steering fluid in my 2004 chevrolet malibu

the 2004 malibu does not have a place to put transmission fluid it has a electric power steering system and does not use fluid, if you are having a problem with the power steering light chimming and lighting up this is under a recall that chevy has obligated to fix. So if your car is doing this take it to your local chevy dealership and have them to repair it for you. Hope this helps.

Hi I own A 98 Chevy Malibu, my ignition locked n i had to put a new ignition switch in, well now my cars tellin me Something Theft Service. Im wonder what I need to do? Iv unhooked battery for hours ect...

You need to reset the theft system. To do this, try to start it. It should start and die. Then after it dies and the theft light is flashing, leave the key on for 10 minutes. After 10 min, the theft light should go out. After the theft light goes out, turn off the key. Count to 5, then restart it. Then it should work.

Air Conditioner Light goes in and out

I had the same problem with my car. Its a sensor that is going bad. For a temporary fix, knock a couple of times on the right side of the console next to your air conditioner switch, it will kick back on. I had extended warranty and got it fixed - it was approximately $400 for part.
