How do i know if it’s the radio or the screen? My screen is blank and I have no sound coming out of speakers…music or turning signals etc.. help! Thanks
If your screen is black there might be a loose ground in the back box of the radio. Or could be the screen ribbon got disconnected… your you simply might need a new radio :(
Im in the same situation mine went out 2 yrs ago an I haven't drove it since because all the electrical parts went out. I don't know how fast I'm going an can't use the ac or heat I changed the little fuse but that wasn't the issue 😢
My gosh it's crazy how a mechanic can get random cars and just know what to pick and pull! Takes lotss of study! Do you guys get alot of honda accords in your hands?
Heyy! all the vehicles we work on are the vehicles we usually offer for sale. we try to make sure all components are up and running and passing inspection before selling them to our customers :)
My screen on my Malibu won’t turn on it’s completely black while car is running but before this happened my ac starting messing up as well it would only turn on when it would want too so I wanna kno if this could be an issue with some sort of fuse
Absolutely. first step is to check your fuses. if your AC is messing up, it's most likely the AC control module, or the one located behind it. there are 2 boxes behind AC module. but radio could also be damaged. the screen ribbon inside may have become loose. and you are not getting power to your screen... I would recommend taking to a professional for a diagnosis only, then researching to see if you can do that repair yourself. thanks so much for watching!!
@@jjuannn813 if that happens. it's probably the sensor they have when you close or open the screen, sometimes that gets damaged.. if you noticed, when you open the screen compartment, the screen goes black, and when you shut it. the picture comes back.. sometimes mine used to glitch unless i moved it a certain way.. they told me it was the ribbon inside could be loose.
Is there a way to fix or change either the sensor or the ribbon? In my case the screen is sometimes black and sometimes it turns on But the radio and all works just fine
I have a 2013 Chevy Malibu with the same radio screen display and I can’t seem to figure out why the screen is black. The radio works fine I just can’t see anything.
if you can hear everything but cannot see your screen it's most likely a loose ground inside the screen circuit board.. also check your fuses. but most likely that's what it could be..
My radio works and does the controls on the bottom but the ac panel doesn't light up hence me not able to use my ac. Would that be a wiring issue or should I replace the a/c panel ?my car is a 2013 Cheverlot Malibu lt please help anyone
don't worry you won't be electrocuted. just disconnect your battery if you fear that. disconnect the negative battery cable and isolate it. no electricity will be running through the car.
Can you replace the screen with a new screen that has apple carplay?
Do I need to reprogram anything if I replace my screen?
Where is your shop located
Now if I want to upgrade to a better unit that has apple car play will the plugs from the radio controls and AC controls be compatible?
Did you happen to get an answer ? I’m currently wanting to upgrade my head unit
@@ThatOneGuy-hc2mq never got a answer

Also check your fuses too

Are you able to just replace the screen? And if so what does that OEM part cost?
Can I hookup a reverse camera to a 2013 chevy malibu LT? It has a mylink
My Raido needs to be unlocked. Any suggestion
What did the dealer charge for the unlock of the radio?

I’ve checked my fuses and they all look good but my screen turns on but there will be times when it won’t wanna turn on

@@MiguelG4rc14 im having this issue
Can I program it myself?
Unfortunately if it's factory locked, you will have to drive your car to the dealership so they can unlock it and program it for you yes.

@@HidalgoMotorsCo will check both! Thank you!
@@Peterg74 no problem! did you figure it out??
Do these screens need to be programmed at the dealership?
yes they do.
How much did they charge

I'm in this situation but it all went out. I'ma try this but I'm scared to touch anything that might electrocute me 😩😭🤣

Did you ever find out the problem?
