I got my spare to work, first I cleaned the contacts and the inside buttons and it did lock but it wouldn't unlock so I put a piece of tin foil just on the unlock one and that cured it.

Well holy crap, this actually worked!!! 2006 Malibu factory command start worked one last time, then all buttons quit on the entire fob? Changed the battery nothing., was going to tear into fuse panel, re-set ecu, check hood pin latch etc etc. saw this video and laughed thinking this can’t be it, but I’ll give it try? 😂😂👌 Instantly entire fob works perfectly again. I just used a hole punch to make perfect circles of foil and never glued them in, just placed them under pins of each rubber button pin and closed it up. Thanx man!!!

Did you krazy glued the two oieces

it worked! many thanks. I only cared about the trunk opening because it has no key. I carefully trimmed a piece of aluminum foil that fits snugly in its hollow without glue. as long as it works, I'll leave it like that. I'll use glue if necessary.

2024 and I ❤this video! Thank you!

I have my doubts about the aluminum foil trick, but if it works, great! HOWEVER, I fixed both my fobs, which I was ready to throw away. Like Erich, the hardest part is getting the fob open. I had replaced the battery in both fobs, to no avail. However, Erich made me consider another source for the problem...dirt/debris/residue! After 13 year, the push button's rubber had worn into electrical contacts. I used rubbing alcohol and a cotton swab to remove the rubber residue on both the electrical contact and the push button rubber. BAM, every button was back like new. Try the simple cleaning trick before permanently altering the fob with adhesive and aluminum. Thanks Erich for the idea.

LOL It WORKED! Thanks, Big Guy! 2010 Malibu.

Never could understand why the lock button alone just up and stopped working but then I found this video and originally thought I had a shorted fob cause it was all nasty. Nope just the rubber contact wore out

This worked! Brilliant!

Just did it, worked perfectly!! Thank you so much!

,

Thank you so much for this. It worked 😢

Fumbles with the fucking pocket knife for 5 minutes... And I'm fucking gone. 🤬

Should have tried WD40 in first instance. Probably just corrosion from humidity.

worked perfetly on first try, wow this is an amazing cheap fix

Did the trick, thanks 😊

I had it in my old rig. Then i upgraded into a smaller one. Now i am back to this case !! Soo goood and very easy to build in

So only the radiator and 1 exhaust from back fan?

Totally worked plus used rubbing alcohol on the gold contact points to clean them. Magic!

This is awesome I just StARTED MY CAR WITH ILLIMUNIM FOIL! Thats the most Fun I have had all day!

It worked perfectly. Key fob once again unlocks my suburban, thanks!

It worked👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 thanks saved me money and time....

Thanks a lot i tried this and now my car won't start and my tire keeps going flat... Just kidding it WORKED GREAT. Thank you!

I thought "this will never work", but WOW, it worked (on one of my remotes, not the other). 2 minute fix that saved me a lot. Thank you.

Merci

Thanks for videos is working great.

Mine only works if I'm sitting inside the truck...??

it works!!!!!!!!!!!!you are so amazing!!!!!!

Life saver its work thank you sir , i saved like Not necessary for New key 200$ And 240$ for programming

That's hilarious! All you need to do is take a pencil eraser and "erase" the oxidation off of the contacts. This is much easier and you can save your aluminum foil to protect your brain from those evil alien radio waves! 😂

Nice that was it 👍🏻 thanks

Thank you man 😍

I have a 2011 Malibu, just like the one shown in this video. Had multiple problems with the fobs ever since having gotten the car. Nothing worked, until I tried this trick. Absolutely works better than they did new.

The only thing that really work, Nice and simple and cheap. Not even cheap $0.00 just 5 minutes of time. Thank you!

Holly Molly you just save me $500. Thanks 😁

I have to try this.

My fob hadn't worked in a few years. This is brilliant! and easy too. Thank you.

It worked on my 2011 HHR. I'm 83 years old and love to fix things and save money! Thank you!

Love this it actually freaking works he'll yeah

This works great! 04 Chevy Silverado key fob. Thanks for the innovation.

OMG, this really worked. Thank you so much.

Hey all, alittle late to the game! I put the aluminum foil in at it worked! But then it kept making the unlocking sound and wouldn't stop untill i took the foil off? Is this because I didn't glue the foil? (I wanted to see if that was the issue)

Thanks 😊

Dude thank You, I have the same Malibu mines just grey

letra arial 1, ni mi pinche profe de arte que era un flojo que mandaba a ctrl+c, ctrl+vear todo internet era tan tacaño xD
