Factory code for radio

You may have entered the wrong code, disconnect the battery for a minute or so and try again.

the radio most likely has a security code activated & until you reactivate the code the radio will not work, you may have to take it to a place where they install radios to get the problem sorted out.........hope this helps........cheers,

90 % chances you also have a shorted alternator it kills the battery.
I have two Luminas and one Malibu and Corvette (mid/late 1990- 2000's) they have the same problems... suddenly dead batteries
Please check alternator when replacing batery.

if this is a factory radio, then you can go to dealership, to get unlock code for your radio. i think you may need the vin number.

try code 0000, this is the stock code, unless someone has changed it. also you can go to www.radio-code for info on all codes.

are u the original owner of the car ?if so do you still have the books that came with the car? look for the delco radio book !there should be a card in there with a code and instructions! if not the only wasy is to go to the dealer or a radio repair shop to have it unlocked!

you need to get the code from a dealer sometimes it will be in your manual

Good morning! On your 98 malibu the only "reset" you can do without a dealer scan tool is to unhook battery for about 5 minutes, this puts computer to sleep and erases memory codes stored. If there is a programming issue the car will need to go to the dealership for latest programming updates. Hope this info helps!

check your serpentine belt it sounds like it may have stretched or broken. Without the belt working properly your car will overheat due to the waterpump not activating and neither will the power steering or alternator
