hey what's up guys uh we're here in 2008
malibu uh this will apply to uh 2008 and
2012.
i'm not sure if it'll work on the
previous uh
model uh well anyways uh the reason
we're here is because
i replaced this radio this this car had
an aftermarket radio
so i replaced it with this one that's
the original one that comes with from
factory
so uh when when i installed this one i
bought this one off of
someone else um so i was getting the
message it was a
it was a locked right here so the radio
was locked
basically uh the computer has to
recognize the radio and since this one
was
another card then it's got the vim from
that car
so and then um i was a reading that
you're supposed to take the car to the
dealer so they can like reprogram the
computer with the radio and all that
stuff
so i i didn't feel like spending two
hundred dollars or
three uh just get the radio working
so i did a research um and i came across
uh someone uh
saying that um if you plug and unplug
the uh
the basically this radio has two two
plugs on the back
okay so what you're gonna do you're
gonna
plug it and then unplug it
and make sure the the uh it's it's
it's it's on a accessories the the key
so you're going to turn the key to the
categories and then you're going to
you're going to plug the uh
connection and you're going to hear like
a sound
okay you're going to hear like a sound
like a buzzing sound or something that
the radio is getting
power so um
you're gonna do it as many times as
as it needs uh
eventually you're gonna see the clock
right here you are gonna see the clock
on it
so once you see the clock then um
then that's gonna be good okay your
radius is gonna be ready to go
okay so the two connections are together
so
one is one it's like you're gonna you're
gonna plug and unplug
the one on your um if you if you look at
it from from the one on your uh
right side okay which is on that side
so do it i don't know how like for me
it worked on the second time it only
took me two times
and it worked so once you see the clock
here
you can just plug everything back and
the rate is going to work
right is gonna start playing music and
all this stuff
okay so hopefully hopefully guys
hopefully it works for you it worked for
me
it hopefully works for you too uh if it
does
uh leave a comment
so that way more people could know about
it
and they could you can save them some
money too all right
well that's it guys thank you
