2009 Malibu Door Locks Going Crazy

Whenever crazy things like this happen my mind starts going to a ground connection problem.

2009 malibu door locks going crazy. Now 10 months later the doors began locking and unlocking themselves continuosly and it is aggravating. The door chime also stopped working around the second day of the locks acting crazy. The new bcm has to be programmed by the dealer after installation usually best to let them install the part for this reason. Normally when the door locks malfunction in the manner you described it is caused by a failing bcm.

The remote should also be checked for stuck buttons. The door locks in the malibu are controlled by the bcm body control module. The 2009 chevrolet malibu has 30 problems reported for power door locks malfunctioning. Sometimes the power door lock starts going off by itself or the dash lights go out.

I have a 2009 chevy malibu ltz that the door locks went crazy on they lock and unlock going down the road. Page 1 of 2. My 2008 malibu started locking and unlocking 2 weeks after i bought the car after 2 3 days it stopped. Asked by grandma1970 apr 14 2015 at 10 40 am about the 2009 chevrolet malibu 1lt fwd.

The fix is to replace the bcm. I can not do anything to get it to stop even if i take the key out it will still do it. Average repair cost is 600 at 53 450 miles. Do you have anything that i can try beside the the keyfob trick.

If there is a conflict in one of the door locks that tells the module it is not closed or not locked the module will cycle the locks. Customers complain about intermittent power outages throughout the vehicle.
