you're welcome, sorry for the late response.

you're welcome, sorry for the late response.

I would love a beer 😍

Too anyone who finds this and still needs answers, best solution I’ve seen is to solder it.

same problem on my wife's malibu smh

Same shit here lmao

you're welcome, sorry for the late response.

I'm having this problem too. My mirror doe snot auto dum but I'm trying to retain the steering wheel volume controls. Did you ever find a harness you'd recommend?

Mike Williams nope. too bad cuz mine goofed too.

Same here, and its $300.00 plus for a new one form the service Dep.

Yes, mine is a 2009 and this is what it came with stock

Tom Schulte Did you find the plastic bezel for the malibu labeled pt1002928? Because i'm looking for it too and can't find it anywhere..

Victor Garza This is how I found the bezel shown removed in this video and verified it matches my VIN: 1] Go to www.gmpartscenter.net/ 2] Enter VIN 3] Navigate to www.gmpartscenter.net/chevrolet/malibu/20989772/2012-year/lt-trim/2-4l-l4-gas-engine/body-cat/instrument-panel-components-scat/?part_name=center-bezel or the equivalent interior trim page for your model, but it is probably the 20989772 | center bezel that you seek. 4] note Part No is different than what is stamped on the bezel: 20989772 | CENTER BEZEL 2012 Chevrolet Malibu 5] Note confirmation: "This part fits your 2012 Chevrolet Malibu" 6] Pick the color of your dashboard, not the titanium or whatever it is of the bezel itself. 20989772 is actually an assembly wit 1002928 as one of its constituent parts. In the video from 0:50 to 0:58 you can see the "ears" of the bezel coming off with it. Your part's color when you order is that color (I think the video shows "ebony"). I believe the bezel itself is always the titanium-like shade.

Wow, thanks your very helpful have a wonderful day

Victor Garza There are a few on ebay too(factory new) for a couple dollars less with free shipping. These things are so fragile and easy to break. Expensive to replace, and used ones are hard to come by. When I bought my malibu it was cracked at the very bottom, and I tried to pull the plastic out and inch or so to get some glue behind it. As soon as I pulled up on it, the bezel shattered into several pieces. The dealership said they break these all the time too.

you're welcome, sorry for the late response.

I replace my radio in a 2012 Malibu and the radio says locked I bought it from a junk yard... Do you know how to reset it

I think you're asking if the radio can be moved from one vehicle to another, and it should be able to. Chevy and GMC are very similar. You might need to purchase a wiring adapter but past that it should work.

u could heat up a really thin nail or something metal thats thin and shove in the broken aux slot and you hold it their until the metal cools . the broken aux tip should melt onto the hot nail as it cools. careful not to melt any plastics though.

i meant as it cools it will stick.

sorry for the late response. if you watch the video on a pc it shows the comments in the video but yeah anyway! 7mm!

Fixed mine. Don't know if you ever got around to it, but I had the same problem and did mine yesterday. Here's what I did First of all, I don't think it was the tensioner inside the port. You can get to that without desoldering, but that didn't fix it for me. I think it just needs to be resoldered. So follow this video to get the radio out. Then: * Pull the antenna cable out (pulls hard, but will come) * Pry up the 2 blue clips inside the 2 other plugs * Remove the 2 cables (the blue clips are inside the clip, so once they are removed, push the lever in if that makes sense) So now you have the radio entirely out. * Remove the 2 small gold screws on each side of the faceplate (4 total). They are 3/16" * While prying up the 4 small clips (2 on top, 2 on bottom), remove the faceplate * Here's the hard part... remove the 8 very small screws from the light pipes. They are like 1/16" or something, and I couldn't find a socket. I used a crescent wrench and a needlenose. Motherboard is now removed. * Desolder the 4 pins for the Aux port * While pressing it down onto the board firmly, solder the 4 pins back on. Be careful not to bridge along the 2 small dividers between each side of pins. * Maybe for good measure, push/bend the tensioner pin in a bit anyways. Reverse all steps: * Install the board and 3 light pipes with 8 screws. (They all need to be in. I tried to skip one of the 4 on the big light pipe, because it's in a weird corner, but then the eject button wouldn't register because the board was pushing back.) * Press the faceplate back onto the main unit * Insert the 4x 3/16 gold screws in the side of the faceplate * Plug the 2 cables in, and press the blue clips down. (The one on the passenger side has an additional sideways clip, so you know which is which) Press the antenna cable back in. (Now we're back in the video) * Bolt in the radio with the 7mm screws * Bolt in the A/C unit with 7mm screws Press trim back on all around the unit, and down around the shifter. DONE! It's really not as hard as it sounds... This is a very thorough description. But my Aux port works again.

@@kevincoenen4473 this helped out so much thank you!!

I by mine on dealer cost 120$ canadian

Go to a junkyard and get one cheap

next time! thanks for watching

CrewOcd should be some clips you pinch that will release the wires

ok thanks. your video was very helpful.

I forced mine down and it came off and i was able to put it back on easy

Bryson Wilkinson yeah. the other half would be filled with a "cubby" to put stuff in

There are clips and tabs that hold the wings in at the top. you need to carefully pry from the bottom until the clips pull out of their inserts, then the tab can come out by pulling the rest of the wing downward.

Same, mine is also broke. I don't want to replace the entire thing, just the aux jack.

Ever fix it?

+Leandro Garcia Ever fix your aux port? Mine is broken too.

+Leandro Garcia did any of you manage to fix your aux? I fixed mine yesterday!!!!

I ended up getting a new radio lol

Hidden valley

lol i thought of saying the same thing.

hey what wiring harness did you end up getting/using.... I also just bought an android head-unit and I'm looking for a wiring harness... I've found several but they all add up to be about just as much as the stereo itself... Just curious to see what someone else chose and what works and doesn't work any longer

you're welcome, sorry for the late response.
