Question edited for clarity/spelling, wrong 'threw', wrong 'know'. Question moved to model category. Test Relays 31 and 32 https://fuse-box.info/chevrolet/chevrolet-malibu-2008-2012-fuses-and-relay Interesting diagnostics on the second video., probably not relevant to your issue, but then again, a quick douse in cold water could crack that bus wire if it was hot. It also shows how good auto electricians are.

A typical starter motor on an internal combustion engine has two wires that connect to the power side of the starter. The first wire is the battery cable, which is connected to the positive terminal of the battery. This wire carries power from the battery to the starter motor. The second wire is the solenoid wire, which is connected to the solenoid on the starter motor. The solenoid is an electromagnet that, when energized, completes the circuit between the battery cable and the starter motor. Please note that, I am assuming you are talking about a car starter, in case you are talking about another type of starter please let me know to give you more specific information.

Question moved from Spanish company Seat (pronounced See-At) to Malibu category. The passenger seat airbag only fires in a crash if there is someone sitting on the passenger seat. There is a sensor in the seat cushion that register a person sitting there. Under the seat there will be a connector, take it apart and spray it with electrical contact cleaner.

Question edited for clarity and typos. Question moved from Television and Video category. Tweakers messing with alarm and immobilizer systems is a nightmare. Only they know what they did. It is a complex system of the chip in the key, the transponder, the ECM, the BCM, the Ignition Module and the antitheft sensors. The best solution is to take it to an auto electrician or an alarm installer and put it back to how it is supposed to be. The only wiring diagram that is accurate and you can follow is the factory service wiring diagram.

You need to partially drain the cooling system. THe thermostat housing is located on the driver side of the engine block above the transmission bell-housing. Just follow the big radiator hose on the driver side and it will lead you to the housing.THere are the radiator hose,two heater hoses, and another hose leading to the surge tank that you will need to remove from the housing. 3 bolts secure the housing to the block- remove these bolts and remove the housing. You can now remove and replace the thermostat and install a new gasket- i would recommend coating the gasket in SIL-Glyde or Vaseline. Torque the bolts to 89inlb, re connect the hoses. Refill cooling system with antifreeze and burp all the air out.

Start with the High and Low Relays, there in the fuse box under the hood

Make sure your ignition switch is working first (does everything light up and working with the key in "ON" position) then try ACC position, does the radio work? If all that checks out then it would be the stepper motors on the instrument cluster are bad, there are several repair kits available pretty cheap since they are a common problem

Problems like this are hard to diagnose because they are intermittent. You need a good auto electrician with a $5,000 scan tool computer. They check all the modules, sensors and the ECM and run two way data. The can also take the vehicle for a run and record what happens when it cuts out. The most likely suspect is the Body Control Module and the model has a history of issues. https://www.google.com/search?q=2014+Chevy+Malibu+Eco+BCM+issues ..
