Well you've lost power to one or two major circuits. Could be a problem with the key switch or a major fuse in the engine compartment. I would check the fuses for power and find out which ones are dead then go from there.

Always on the a/c low side just beforethe evaporator & after the accumulatorThat is assuming you have a system with thoseYou do realize you can't get to it without dumpingall the refrigerant & then you find nothing in the screen& wasted your time unless you burned up a compressor

Spark plugs do not need calibration!! Although it may need gapping which requires a gapping tool such as a filler guage!! Check your local autozone for this tool and gapping specs for this vehicle!!

i would advise you take to the shop

check the battery if it has a little clear eye make sure it is green if it is black the battery is dead. if you do not have the little clear eye on top try to jump start the vehicle. ALWAYS REMEMBER... the ground( - black) should be attached to a clean metal point on the motor of the vehicle you are jump starting. positive(+red) goes on the + on the battery and both cables connect to the battery of the person who is nice enough to give you a jump. this will keep you from sending voltage spikes through the computer.

Sounds like the cable travel between the shifter and the transmission needs to be adjusted. It would depend on if the adjustment can be made or if the cable has stretched and would need to be replaced.

maxi fuses #6 is for air-30 amp. micro relays # 16 is for a/c compressor.

I found a fuse marked AC BFC which powers the ac compressor clutch and the body control module. No AC BFD. The wiring diagrams do not give the fuse numbers.Your owners manual should list all of the fuses and what they control.

Check your speed sensor

the only thing that I can say is go to a chevy dealer and have them copy one for you,for your year malibu. usually no cost.

I think you have problem with the main door switch

no cutoff switch!! try this turn key to on, do not start car. let sit for about 30 minutes, after 30 minutes, turn key off. wait 15 seconds and try to start car. this should reset anti theft system.
