2006 Chevrolet Cobalt - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Question edited for clarity and spelling. Question moved to model category. Seems it is a common issue https://www.google.com/search?q=2006+Chevy+Cobalt+stuck+in+low+gear

There's no switch to turn it off, it's tied into the antilock brake system. You could remove the ABS fuse which will disable BOTH systems, You should think about the implacations before doing that.

The fan is located in the passanger footwell. Get your head down there and look up at the bottom of the dash. the housing is behind the glove box, the fan is mounted to the bottom of the housing.

Check the drive belt,and the alternator,most likely if the belt is still on,and it is running on the pulleys ok,then the alternator maybe out,have it checked,with out the alternator working the engine will not perform.

My 06 cobalt is doing the same thing. i have cleaned the injection system still having the same problem. i am going to replace the fuel filter next. if this doesnt work , i have no choice but to consult a dealer.

More than likely you need to have your blower motor checked and possibly replaced.

Idk about a 2006. Mine is a 2007 and it's under the hood and attached to the fuse box. I just purchased one for 80 dollars and replaced it. It's really 130 but they have a core charge

you may have a limp mode issue, solenoid issue or a transmission wiring issue. that would be a start

If there is an issue with the pressure in the system, the ECU will not allow the compressor to run. Check the coolant high and low pressure point pressures are within specification.

Standard Motor Products part # V415 is the valve I see listed if you're careful you can reuse the hose. I hope this helps. Take care.

first thing first are you sure that your BCM box is bad what symptoms are you experiencing I had a similar problem just the other day I thought my BCM box was going bad my brake lights would come on and stay on and my cruise control would also not work do to my brake lights staying on I went on line to check this problem out and found out that this was an easy fix that my box might not be bad at all, if your having similar problems try this first go to your local parts store and buy you a tube of dielectric silicone compound unhook your ground cable on your battery go to your BCM box and remove the two big grey plugs once you have removed them open the tube of grease and put a finger full on your finger and rub it inside where the plugs go and spread it evenally as possible once done rehook your grey plugs and then replace your cover and then you can rehook your ground cable this is what i done to my car and it fixed my problem. hope this helps... Here also is the bulletin i went to just type in technical bulletin #08-05-009c and it will explain more about it.

Check the fuses in the engine compartment

Steering shaft broke , take it to a qualified repair shop.

Sounds like your crankshaft sensor is bad. It will stop working if bad and will leave you stranded. GOod luck.

Check this procedure about how to Replace Brake Pads....

Parts:
1. Brake Pad Set

Tools:
1. C-Clamp
2. Flat Head Screwdriver
3. Jack Stand Set
4. 3/8 in. Drive Ratchet
5. Combination Wrench Set
6. Tire Iron
7. Socket Set
8. 1/4 in. Drive Torque Wrench
9. Dial Indicator

Supplies:
1. Brake Cleaner
2. Brake Lubricant

Steps:
Step 1 Secure your vehicle on a level surface, making sure your car will not roll or lean too much when jacked up.
o Tip: Safety Tip:Always wear safety glasses when working on your vehicle. Wear other personal protective equipment (PPE) when necessary, for example latex gloves or safety shoes.

Step 2 Remove the cap from the brake master cylinder. Using a turkey baster, remove a quarter of the brake fluid from the master cylinder. Lift up the front of your vehicle using a floor jack.
o Tip: Using an aftermarket floor jack, instead of the original equipment (OE) jack, can make the job easier and safer. Verify the condition of the floor jack before use.

Step 3 Secure the vehicle with jack stands on both sides for safety before starting any work. The pinch welds and the frame are the two best locations. Do not rely on the jack to hold the vehicle up while working.
o Tip: Try to find a flat, level, and strong surface to put the jack stands.

Step 4 Remove the front wheels by removing the lugs nuts that are holding them on. To do this you will need to find the correct size socket and large ratchet or tire iron and turn them counter clockwise. If your vehicle is equipped with hub caps (plastic covers over the wheels), these will need to be removed to access the lug nuts.
o Tip: It is a good idea to try and break the lug nuts free before you jack the wheels off the ground. This way they you will not spin the front wheels or put stress on the transaxle.
o Tip: Lug nuts fasten the wheel to the hub and may be on very tight. To gain more leverage, use a breaker bar to loosen the nuts.

Step 5 Inspect the brake rotors for scoring, grooves, cracks and discoloration.

Step 6 Remove the brake caliper mounting bolts.

Step 7 Slide the brake caliper off of the brake rotor.
o Tip: If the brake rotors are worn and there is a big lip preventing the brake caliper from sliding off easily, gently pry one pad back into the brake caliper to clear the lip and make removal easier.

Step 8 Support the brake caliper up and away from the working area. Make sure you do not kink or pinch any brake lines. Do not disconnect the brake line.
o Tip: Use a bungee cord to secure the brake caliper out of the way and hang it on the suspension spring.

Step 9 Remove the brake pads from brake caliper.

Step 10 Compress caliper piston using a C-clamp.

Step 11 Install the new brake pads in the brake caliper.

Step 12 Reinstall the brake caliper.

Step 13 Torque the brake caliper mounting bolts to manufacturer’s specifications. Repeat for other side.

Step 14 Install wheels and torque to manufacturer’s specifications.

Step 15 Refill the brake fluid in the brake master cylinder and reinstall the cap.

Step 16 Road test vehicle, break in new pads.
o Tip: To break in pads and rotors refer to manufacturers recommendations. Some companies have different procedures for pad and rotor break in.


Hope this help (remember rated this help), good luck.

Might be in that mode or the vent cable might be broken in dash that controls direction of air flow.
