My locks on my 2005 malibu maxx no longre lock or ulock the doors i have to use the keyless remote to lock and unlock then if you open the door the alarm starts to sound this is getting on my last nerve is there a fix without going to the dealership also the amber light with the lock is flashing
If i had to guess i would say you have a shorted wire in the harness. this may be the problem or it could be a bad switch or relay also. trying to tell you what it is from is going to be really hard unless someone else with the same problem figured it out and is willing to tell what he did. i have a mustang 2002 and took the dirvers door wire harness out of the car and found two wires that been cut from inside the door on what i don't know. my door lock didn't work and my power mirror didn't work. at least your remote still works so you know the lock is getting power but something is bad some where and acting as a toggle swtich and that can be from to wires touching each other when you hit a bump in the road for example.
SOURCE: Change battery/Reprogram remote
take the postive battery cable off then put it back on then turn your car over three times not start it but just turn it on off on off on off that should reset it. thats what they did to mine at the dealers and it cost me 120.00 bucks

Make sure to check all doors, the trunk latch, and the hood to ensure that they are shut. I have looked up your 2006 Chevy Malibu and there has been a lot of people complaining about the alarm system and it going off. There is a TBS (Technical Service Bulletin) out for your car. The TBS says that the Faulty Door Sensor. Take it to your local dealership and tell him what I found for you and they should get you a quote on how much it would cost to repair it.
Thank you for using Fix Ya!
Good Luck!

i think it stands for traction control. most cars with that say ETC which stands for electronic traction control. if you have a manual for the car it should say what it is.

You will need to have the radio reset or checked out at the dealer.Ther could be a cd stuck in it.Or the radio/CD player may have be on when the battery power got to low.

You have a intermittent condition. To isolate the cause: 1.Disconnect the drivers door lock/unlock switch from the connector. Drive the vehicle and see if your random lock/unlock condition has stopped. If it has, replace the switch. If it hasn't:
2. You have a grounding problem or a problem in the BCM (Body Control Module) and should have a technician use a Tech 2 Diagnostic Link Tool to access the BCM computer to obtain any fault code data to help correct the condition.

I have the same problem on my 2005 Malibu LS (w/ V6). I do not have keyless entry. The only way to unlock the car is by key. As I am driving down the road the doors lock and unlock automatically at random. I have no idea what is wrong. I checked the resistor in the fuse box and it seems ok (no corosion). I think I will replace it just in case. Any help please!!
Chevy said BCM but my question is this: The BCM does not know the doors are unlocked because it sets the alarm so it seems to me that there is an intermittent short in wiring to all locks that set these off? Mine unlocks shortly after getting out of the car and using the fob to lock the doors. If they are in the unlocked position by themselves the tailgate will not open with the button in the back because the BCM sees the doors as locked. And, yse the locks pop up during driving. They are to lock when trans is in gear and unlock in Park only! It's a security feature that is now worthless!.
2005 Malibu Maxx doors lock and unlock by themselves 10-20 times in a minute, when the car is moving and stopped, also alarm seems to go off for no apparent reason. Help?!
I have a 2005 chevy malibu and have the same problem - my doors lock and unlock while driving down the road - several times. I also find my car unlocked during the day because it auto unlocks after I leave my car. !!!
