Fantastic! This saved me hundreds of $$$ ... I bought the part today ... just finished putting in the exhaust solenoid. It literally took me less than 15 minutes! Thanks for the great video!!
Thank you! This video make it super simple to remove this code! Once the clip is unlocked, use long nose pliers to gently press down on the end of the clip and pull them out. For the back solenoid, we removed the air handling hose just above it to make it a bit easier. Overall, saved me hundreds! Thanks again!

gnovincejr2 Thanks for watching, great question! Since our Solenoid failed & sent error code to the onboard computer, it then illuminated the Check Engine Light. At this point, the illuminated Check Engine Light deactivates our onboard remote starter...Bummer. In order to get our remote starter to work again, we needed to replace Solenoid. After replacing the solenoid and starting the engine, The new solenoid sent an electrical communication link to the onboard computer which allowed the onboard computer to recognize the new solenoid...which then allowed the onboard computer to turn off the check engine light. At this point the remote starter was now reactivated for normal use. We hope this helps.

Great video! Question, my car won't start at all. Just before it conked out I had a diagnostic done because my engine light was on. The code I was given was p0013 C0899. I have a 2012 Chevy Malibu. Since I have a different year Malibu then the one in your video and my code is a C, I dont know specifically what part needs to be replaced. Can you help me?
Hey, this is Frank in Troy, N.Y.. Nice job! it's Jan.3, 2021 I just did the Exhaust Solenoid { the front one] on my 2014 2.5 Malibu. and I did the Evap Purge Valve that sits just behind the Intake solenoid valve.. HAD Code P0455 [CPV] and a code P0014, so hopefully this fix's it! that 2013 you have has better Electrical conn's on it than the 2014. " Come on GM" why do they do such a crappy job on that stuff ? And the eco start stop function is A piece of Crap ! why did they ever do that? More electronics to go Wrong !!!! I think the Solenoid valves have something to with it. the code reader, reads P0014 and it is Bank 2, cam shaft positioning is Advanced.

My 2006 Chevy Impala is stalling, dying while I'm driving and it jerks when I accelerate speed. I replaced the 02 sensors, (upstream and downstream) crankshaft and camshaft position sensors, motor mounts, and mass air flow housing and my car is still stalling on me. What would you reccomend I do next? I subscribed. 🤷♀️❤
Christina Martinez Thanks for watching & sharing your experience Christina, let’s get this figured out! Let’s start with the simple friendly inexpensive options. 1. Air Filter: A dirty/clogged Air Filter can cause your exact symptoms. A new Filter will help increase engine performance. 2. Spark Plugs & Wires: It’s very important to replace Spark Plugs & Wires every 2-3 years. Worn out Wires & damaged Plugs will cause a significant loss of engine performance. We recommend replacing your Plugs & Wires...& make sure you purchase the right Plugs. Let’s start there, keep us posted! Please subscribe to the channel and turn on your RUclips notification Bell 🛎 that would be awesome thanks again! 😎👍🔧🔩
@@DIYwithMichaelBorders All you listed have already been replaced this last month. Those were my parts to have replaced. I put SeaFoam in the engine yesterday. What is next to check? ❤
Christina Martinez Thanks for the reply, is your Check Engine Light illuminated by chance? If yes then we recommend visiting your local AutoZone and having them hook up the OBD scanner. They will then be able to show you what exact error codes are causing your engine light which in return will lead us directly to the part that needs to be replaced. Keep us posted! 😎👍🔧🔩
Christina Martinez Thanks for the reply! AutoZone is our favorite! 😎👍 What year is your Malibu? What spark plugs did you purchase? Also when you replaced spark plugs, did you apply the dielectric grease to your plug connections?... maybe too much dielectric grease was added... We have done this in the past when replacing spark plugs... we accidentally added way too much dielectric grease to the plugs ....😲...and once we inserted and secured the wires onto the new plugs... The engine ran worse than it did with the old dirty worn out plugs. So we took off the wires and cleaned off all the dielectric grease and then re-secured the wires to the plugs & the engine has run great for two years. Keep us posted! Let’s get this figured out! 😎👍🔧🔩
Hi great video. I have a 2015 Malibu and my check engine light has been coming on and off. Got this code 3 times stored. I ordered the part just wanting for it to arrive hopefully sometime this upcoming week. I was wondering what is all the tools i should get to loosen the bolts and etc for this project? Thanks

DIY With Michael Borders So as far as tools I found my ratcheting screwdriver and realized that I have a 10mm socket but as far as the socket i need for the engine screws i dont have a T30 i only have a T27 do you think that would work or would I have to go out and buy a T30 socket? Thanks in advance 🙂 Just want to make sure I have my tools in order before the part gets here.
Indy J. Thanks for the reply. We recommend renting a T-ratchet/socket set from your local AutoZone. It’s free...you pay for the rental, then use the tools for your project, then return tools to AutoZone & you get 100% of your money back. Hope this helps! 😎👍🔧🔩
MrScottyAwesome Thanks for watching! We appreciate you sharing your comment. Let’s get this figured out! We recommend calling your local Chevy Dealership & providing them with your exact year/engine size...they might even ask for your VIN #. Next, they will be able to get you the exact replacement part for your specific engine. We have replaced Solenoids on Chevy Cruze eco engines in the past & the Solenoids look very different. Below are two links to our videos that shows the eco Solenoid. Maybe this is what your engine needs however again, your local dealership will get you the correct part. ruclips.net/video/0IZuMJu1p4Q/видео.html ruclips.net/video/anE40eI6Lyg/видео.html Keep us posted!

I’m having the same problem removing the connector. The latch slides back easily but the connector doesn’t come off. Watching the video, it seems there’s some sort of tab on the solenoid that has to be cleared, so I’m guessing you have to push on something to clear that tab, but I’m not seeing anything. If anyone knows, please pass along. Thanks!
Mitch Ferris Thanks for watching! These little clips can be a pain. Most important thing is to be careful as you remove & reinstall it. Keep me posted on your repair Mitch. Please subscribe to the channel and turn on your RUclips notifications that would be awesome thanks again 😎👍
Turns out you slide the latch back, then squeeze the back part of that latch against the base of the connector and pull it off. I figured it was something simple.

I'm having difficulty removing the wire harness from the solenoid. Yours slid right off. Was there a trick to this? I slid the white piece back until it clicked, but the harness will not come off.
Biologist19681 Thanks for checking out the video and sharing your experience. Th se clips can be tricky. Each electrical connection clips have a plastic locking tab. It requires you to shift locking tab. Once locking tab is shifted back, you will then need to carefully shift electrical connection clip off. Sorry for not showing it in the video.

DIY With Michael Borders yes I shifted the locking tab but was unable to remove the harness. I'll try a few suggestions I found on another forum. Thanks.

Monya Hanna Thanks for watching Monya Hanna! It’s very similar. Its important to verify which Solenoid needs replacement. In our case, there is an intake Solenoid as well as an exhaust Solenoid. You want to replace the correct one. However since you’re replacing one, you can only benefit from replacing both at the same time since you’re taking a few parts off to gain access to faulty Solenoid. 😀 Hope this helps!

Monya Hanna It’s very possible! I would check Amazon as well. AutoZone is the Best. We love AutoZone.

So here we go guys. Had my 2012 Chevy Malibu lt for 5 Plus years. Got my car back fall 2016 from my uncle. it was in the shop for almost a year while after a freak accident late 2015. From that time on guys. New fuel pump, air filter, brakes, tires, battery alternator starter still solid, the fuse box got realigned, camshafts solenoids replaced myself Christmas 2016( both of them) and the position sensor as of recent day. Fast forward now 2018, cranking my car it doesn't even start. Scanned the car the same code appears p0013, Got it jumped multiple times doesn't even cut on now. What could it be?
GOOB THA DON Thanks for checking out the video and sharing your experience. Let’s get this figured out! 😀 A few things come to mind. 1. As you know, your engine requires 3 things in order to start & continue to run efficiently! 1. Fuel 2. Spark 3. Air Since you have a new starter Installed & it’s at least cranking & attempting to start, it’s possible that your starter is not getting the assistance from one of those three items. In most cases, it’s the fuel delivery. It’s possible that fuel is not making it to the cylinders to be ignited by the plugs. It can be clogged injectors or clogged fuel filter. Or your fuel pump has failed...& not sending fuel to engine. It’s also important to check all of your spark plugs and coil’s to verify that they are not burning nor do they have oil on them. If you find this to be the case, we can walk you through the required steps to get that fixed. Let’s also focus on your electrical connections & wiring as well. We recommend doing a thorough inspection of all wiring & electrical connection points that feed to the parts that have been replaced. It’s possible that your electrical connection point came loose from a part...unlikely...however we can’t rule it out. Let’s start there! Keep us posted! Please subscribe to the channel and turn on your RUclips notification Bell that would be awesome thanks again! 😎👍🔧🔩
@@DIYwithMichaelBorders ok.. thanks guys. now fast forward today, the car starts fine. problem is the staggers and stops and had to start and drive and do the whole process again. is it the transmission? scanned it again now multiple codes come up. appreciate the feedback
GOOB THA DON Thanks for the update & sorry for the delay! What codes did it trigger? This will definitely help us pinpoint which part is either working intermittently or has become completely faulty. Keep us posted! 😎👍🔧🔩
I have a question I replaced both of my solenoids once and the car continued stalling but there was no check engine light so I thought that maybe the parts were bad so I went and exchange them for two new ones and the car is still doing the same thing what could be the issue? Thank you
Slick Rick Da Rula Thanks for watching & sharing your comment. Let’s get this figured out together! As you know, your engine requires 3 things to run. 1. Spark 2. Fuel 3. Air Spark: In the event that your spark plugs have not been changed in a few years it may be a good idea to replace your spark plugs and wires. As the spark plugs age and gather corrosion over the years, the efficient spark will degrade and may cause degraded engine performance. 2. Fuel: At any point your fuel delivery is interfered with or clogged, your engine will experience several issues. It’s possible that you may need to run some fuel system cleaner through your system and hopefully loosen up any gathered gunk on your injectors or inside your fuel pump that is ultimately interfering with your fuel delivery. 3. Air: One of the more commonly forgotten about parts in your engine is your air filter. Your air filter is very important and over the years your air filter can get to a point where it is so clogged that it is constantly causing degraded engine performance and sometimes leading you to think it something else when it’s really as simple as the air filter. Let’s start there. Keep us posted! Please subscribe to the channel and turn on your RUclips notification Bell 🛎 that would be awesome thanks again! 😎👍🔧🔩
Of course I put the new solenoids in and it was still stalling but I just got the oil changed yesterday and it does not do it anymore the solenoids run off of the oil and for whatever reason the new oil made it stop. I talk to my mechanic and he told me he fixed the same problem on someone else's car all he did was take us Illinois's out clean off the little screens on the solenoids and change the oil and it worked
Slick Rick Da Rula Awesome Awesome & that’s definitely another option. Some people however will clean, clean, clean, & clean it & the Solenoid still throws the error code. 😲 Thanks for sharing your update! You Rock! 😎👍🔧🔩

@@DIYwithMichaelBorders Thank you SO MUCH for the super-speedy response! I greatly appreciate it! Actually, I have a 2013 Dodge Dart that just gave the P0013 code, took a trip to the AutoZone and they found that it is the Exhaust Camshaft Position Actuator Circuit / Open (Bank 1). I spoke to them this morning and an engine variable timing solenoid would do the trick, then I found your video which seems to support it.. however, I was also told by a friend that it would be camshaft position scanner... for the sake of being thorough, I odered both, but at the moment, this car is so new to me, I can't even figure out how to get the engine cover off to even [get] to the engine and I've worked on engines for other cars no problem. Any further assistance is greatly appreciated! Thanks again!

igor zamorski Thanks for watching & sharing your question. The P0011 error code is tied to your Solenoid & depending on whether you get the (A) or (B) reference will lead you to which Solenoid to replace. With our specific make, model, & year....the (A) reference is the Intake Solenoid & the (B) reference is the Exhaust Solenoid. Replacing them both at the same time isn’t a bad idea either. 😀 We hope this helps. Let us know if you have any additional questions, we are here to help!

Thanks for the replay i have code p0011 and my mechanic said it has to do with oil pressure or bad quality oil does it make sense?does the solenoid problem its common for chevrolet malibu 2013? My car drove only 56000 kilometres a bit too soon?
igor zamorski Thanks for the reply & unfortunately this is an extremely common issue with Chevy engines lately. It’s possible that the oil grade caused your error code. This engine requires Synthetic Oil & if Synthetic Oil is drained & Conventional Oil is added, it may trip the sensor as it is noticing a downgrade in required oil. Hope this helps. Keep us posted! 😎👍🔧🔩

What does this mean about your remote starter feature? What happened and what did you have to do?@@DIYwithMichaelBorders
gnovincejr2
Thanks for watching, great question! Since our Solenoid failed & sent error code to the onboard computer, it then illuminated the Check Engine Light.
At this point, the illuminated Check Engine Light deactivates our onboard remote starter...Bummer.
In order to get our remote starter to work again, we needed to replace Solenoid.
After replacing the solenoid and starting the engine, The new solenoid sent an electrical communication link to the onboard computer which allowed the onboard computer to recognize the new solenoid...which then allowed the onboard computer to turn off the check engine light.
At this point the remote starter was now reactivated for normal use.
We hope this helps. Below is a link to video explaining more.

What year is your Malibu ? I have a 2014 with the same code how do you know which might be the bad Solenoid.
Scott Keppler
Thanks for watching Scott, we worked on a 2013 Malibu in this video.
After hooking up OBD scanner to vehicle, you will get a Solenoid (A) error code or a Solenoid (B) error code.
If you get an (A) error code, you will need to replace the Intake Solenoid. Below is a link to videos that show step-by-step process on replacing Intake Solenoid.
ruclips.net/video/hNbbDztM9bc/видео.html

Didn't get a A or B error code just get the POO13 code
Great video. I was wondering if you can you tell me what part number is for bank 1 ? I have a code p0011 Camshaft position a - timing over - advance system performance (bank 1) please let me know. Thank you

Thanks for watching! Great question! We strongly recommend purchasing OEM part from your local Chevy Dealership. This will ensure you get the more reliable Solenoid rather than an aftermarket Solenoid.

Great video! Question, my car won't start at all. Just before it conked out I had a diagnostic done because my engine light was on. The code I was given was p0013 C0899. I have a 2012 Chevy Malibu. Since I have a different year Malibu then the one in your video and my code is a C, I dont know specifically what part needs to be replaced. Can you help me?
Yeah I also tried to have my car jumped when it conked out but that didn't work.
Hey, this is Frank in Troy, N.Y.. Nice job! it's Jan.3, 2021 I just did the Exhaust Solenoid { the front one] on my 2014 2.5 Malibu. and I did the Evap Purge Valve that sits just behind the Intake solenoid valve.. HAD Code P0455 [CPV] and a code P0014, so hopefully this fix's it! that 2013 you have has better Electrical conn's on it than the 2014. " Come on GM" why do they do such a crappy job on that stuff ? And the eco start stop function is A piece of Crap ! why did they ever do that? More electronics to go Wrong !!!! I think the Solenoid valves have something to with it. the code reader, reads P0014 and it is Bank 2, cam shaft positioning is Advanced.

My 2006 Chevy Impala is stalling, dying while I'm driving and it jerks when I accelerate speed. I replaced the 02 sensors, (upstream and downstream) crankshaft and camshaft position sensors, motor mounts, and mass air flow housing and my car is still stalling on me. What would you reccomend I do next? I subscribed. 🤷♀️❤
Christina Martinez
Thanks for watching & sharing your experience Christina, let’s get this figured out!
Let’s start with the simple friendly inexpensive options.
1. Air Filter: A dirty/clogged Air Filter can cause your exact symptoms. A new Filter will help increase engine performance.
2. Spark Plugs & Wires: It’s very important to replace Spark Plugs & Wires every 2-3 years. Worn out Wires & damaged Plugs will cause a significant loss of engine performance. We recommend replacing your Plugs & Wires...& make sure you purchase the right Plugs.

@@DIYwithMichaelBorders All you listed have already been replaced this last month. Those were my parts to have replaced. I put SeaFoam in the engine yesterday. What is next to check? ❤
Christina Martinez
Thanks for the reply, is your Check Engine Light illuminated by chance?
If yes then we recommend visiting your local AutoZone and having them hook up the OBD scanner. They will then be able to show you what exact error codes are causing your engine light which in return will lead us directly to the part that needs to be replaced.
Keep us posted!
😎👍🔧🔩
@@DIYwithMichaelBordersYes, the check engine light stays on then goes off. I work at Auto Zone. The obd2 scanner didn't read any error codes.
Christina Martinez
Thanks for the reply! AutoZone is our favorite! 😎👍
What year is your Malibu? What spark plugs did you purchase? Also when you replaced spark plugs, did you apply the dielectric grease to your plug connections?... maybe too much dielectric grease was added...
We have done this in the past when replacing spark plugs... we accidentally added way too much dielectric grease to the plugs ....😲...and once we inserted and secured the wires onto the new plugs... The engine ran worse than it did with the old dirty worn out plugs.
So we took off the wires and cleaned off all the dielectric grease and then re-secured the wires to the plugs & the engine has run great for two years.
Keep us posted!

DIY With Michael Borders So as far as tools I found my ratcheting screwdriver and realized that I have a 10mm socket but as far as the socket i need for the engine screws i dont have a T30 i only have a T27 do you think that would work or would I have to go out and buy a T30 socket? Thanks in advance 🙂 Just want to make sure I have my tools in order before the part gets here.
Indy J.
Thanks for the reply. We recommend renting a T-ratchet/socket set from your local AutoZone. It’s free...you pay for the rental, then use the tools for your project, then return tools to AutoZone & you get 100% of your money back. Hope this helps! 😎👍🔧🔩
I watched this video, ordered the part, the motor looks nothing like this. I guess my 2013 Malibu Eco is a 2.4. What's the difference?
MrScottyAwesome
Thanks for watching! We appreciate you sharing your comment. Let’s get this figured out!
We recommend calling your local Chevy Dealership & providing them with your exact year/engine size...they might even ask for your VIN #.
Next, they will be able to get you the exact replacement part for your specific engine.
We have replaced Solenoids on Chevy Cruze eco engines in the past & the Solenoids look very different. Below are two links to our videos that shows the eco Solenoid. Maybe this is what your engine needs however again, your local dealership will get you the correct part.

I’m having the same problem removing the connector. The latch slides back easily but the connector doesn’t come off. Watching the video, it seems there’s some sort of tab on the solenoid that has to be cleared, so I’m guessing you have to push on something to clear that tab, but I’m not seeing anything. If anyone knows, please pass along. Thanks!

Turns out you slide the latch back, then squeeze the back part of that latch against the base of the connector and pull it off. I figured it was something simple.

I need to replace my camshaft actuator solenoid for. 2009 chevy aveo. Is it as easy as this also?
Monya Hanna
Thanks for watching Monya Hanna! It’s very similar. Its important to verify which Solenoid needs replacement. In our case, there is an intake Solenoid as well as an exhaust Solenoid. You want to replace the correct one.
However since you’re replacing one, you can only benefit from replacing both at the same time since you’re taking a few parts off to gain access to faulty Solenoid. 😀

New fuel pump, air filter, brakes, tires, battery alternator starter still solid, the fuse box got realigned, camshafts solenoids replaced myself Christmas 2016( both of them) and the position sensor as of recent day. Fast forward now 2018, cranking my car it doesn't even start. Scanned the car the same code appears p0013, Got it jumped multiple times doesn't even cut on now. What could it be?

Thanks for checking out the video and sharing your experience. Let’s get this figured out! 😀
A few things come to mind.
1. As you know, your engine requires 3 things in order to start & continue to run efficiently!
1. Fuel
2. Spark
3. Air
Since you have a new starter Installed & it’s at least cranking & attempting to start, it’s possible that your starter is not getting the assistance from one of those three items.
In most cases, it’s the fuel delivery. It’s possible that fuel is not making it to the cylinders to be ignited by the plugs. It can be clogged injectors or clogged fuel filter. Or your fuel pump has failed...& not sending fuel to engine.
It’s also important to check all of your spark plugs and coil’s to verify that they are not burning nor do they have oil on them. If you find this to be the case, we can walk you through the required steps to get that fixed.
Let’s also focus on your electrical connections & wiring as well. We recommend doing a thorough inspection of all wiring & electrical connection points that feed to the parts that have been replaced. It’s possible that your electrical connection point came loose from a part...unlikely...however we can’t rule it out.

@@DIYwithMichaelBorders ok.. thanks guys. now fast forward today, the car starts fine. problem is the staggers and stops and had to start and drive and do the whole process again. is it the transmission? scanned it again now multiple codes come up. appreciate the feedback
GOOB THA DON
Thanks for the update & sorry for the delay! What codes did it trigger? This will definitely help us pinpoint which part is either working intermittently or has become completely faulty.

I have a question I replaced both of my solenoids once and the car continued stalling but there was no check engine light so I thought that maybe the parts were bad so I went and exchange them for two new ones and the car is still doing the same thing what could be the issue? Thank you

Thanks for watching & sharing your comment. Let’s get this figured out together!
As you know, your engine requires 3 things to run.
1. Spark
2. Fuel
3. Air
Spark: In the event that your spark plugs have not been changed in a few years it may be a good idea to replace your spark plugs and wires. As the spark plugs age and gather corrosion over the years, the efficient spark will degrade and may cause degraded engine performance.
2. Fuel: At any point your fuel delivery is interfered with or clogged, your engine will experience several issues. It’s possible that you may need to run some fuel system cleaner through your system and hopefully loosen up any gathered gunk on your injectors or inside your fuel pump that is ultimately interfering with your fuel delivery.
3. Air: One of the more commonly forgotten about parts in your engine is your air filter. Your air filter is very important and over the years your air filter can get to a point where it is so clogged that it is constantly causing degraded engine performance and sometimes leading you to think it something else when it’s really as simple as the air filter.
Let’s start there. Keep us posted!

All I had to do was put fresh oil and it stopped
Of course I put the new solenoids in and it was still stalling but I just got the oil changed yesterday and it does not do it anymore the solenoids run off of the oil and for whatever reason the new oil made it stop. I talk to my mechanic and he told me he fixed the same problem on someone else's car all he did was take us Illinois's out clean off the little screens on the solenoids and change the oil and it worked
Slick Rick Da Rula
Hey very cool & thanks for the update! These little Solenoids last roughly 60-70 thousand miles & then need to be replaced. 😎👍🔧🔩
Slick Rick Da Rula
Awesome Awesome & that’s definitely another option. Some people however will clean, clean, clean, & clean it & the Solenoid still throws the error code. 😲
Thanks for sharing your update! You Rock! 😎👍🔧🔩
I'm having this issue now. Where can I order the OEM part ?
Jorge R Thanks for watching Jorge R! We recommend contacting your Local Chevy Dealership. They will use OEM parts. It’s always a good idea to double check with the dealership before you purchase part. Keep us posted on your repair and let us know if you have any questions along the way.

How did you determine that the solenoid was at fault? (As opposed to a camshaft cam phaser actuator of simply the fuse?
Chicago Music Guide
Thanks for watching & great question. We used our OBD scanner which detected the exact error code that illuminated the check engine light.
We recommend visiting your local AutoZone where they will hook up their OBD scanner to your vehicle & read error codes for 100% free. 😀

@@DIYwithMichaelBorders Thank you SO MUCH for the super-speedy response! I greatly appreciate it! Actually, I have a 2013 Dodge Dart that just gave the P0013 code, took a trip to the AutoZone and they found that it is the Exhaust Camshaft Position Actuator Circuit / Open (Bank 1). I spoke to them this morning and an engine variable timing solenoid would do the trick, then I found your video which seems to support it.. however, I was also told by a friend that it would be camshaft position scanner... for the sake of being thorough, I odered both, but at the moment, this car is so new to me, I can't even figure out how to get the engine cover off to even [get] to the engine and I've worked on engines for other cars no problem. Any further assistance is greatly appreciated! Thanks again!
Chicago Music Guide
Thanks for the reply & that’s great news! Congrats on the car & purchasing both parts will only benefit you.
Lean Bank 1 & Lean Bank 2...or “A & B” are different as you know & in sounds like you have pinpointed the part.
Keep us posted on your end result. There should be a few helpful videos on your exact make & model.

What does she mean when she says if you got the a code and b code?
Joe Olvera
Thanks for checking out the video and sharing your comment...sorry for the delay. The A code & B code refer to the Exhaust Solenoid separately from the Intake Solenoid. It’s very important that you get the correct Solenoid. Below is an additional video that shows step-by-step on replacing Intake Solenoid.

Great job replacing the part. However the most important part of the job was not done. These solenoids fail do to oil quality, the first step of the job s to flush the old oil out.
Scott, we appreciate you watching & sharing your thoughts. Any & all helpful info is greatly appreciated!!
Hope all is well with you and your family.

Is this the reason why the factory car starter won’t work ?
Manny davila
Thanks for watching & that’s a great question! Once your Check-Engine light come on, it automatically inhibits your remote starting system. In order to get your remote starter to operate properly again, you’ll need to fix the part that is triggering your Check-Engine light...

It’s possible that the other Solenoid has faulted & it’s time to replace it. As you know, it’s a very friendly DIY project & is also cost friendly. That is a fun replacement.

What if the clip won't come off the solenoid?
Thanks for watching, they can definitely be a bit tricky. Most important approach is staying patient, precise, & gentle with clip.
Keep us posted.

Will it go out instantly?

Thanks for watching! Great question! After the Solenoid sets off Error Code, it has gotten to a point where it is no longer working at the specified efficiency as it is supposed to. It is recommended to replace it or your engine performance will degrade & may cause additional problems over time. Hope this helps!

Isnt p0011 its intake solenoid
igor zamorski
Thanks for watching & sharing your question. The P0011 error code is tied to your Solenoid & depending on whether you get the (A) or (B) reference will lead you to which Solenoid to replace.
With our specific make, model, & year....the (A) reference is the Intake Solenoid & the (B) reference is the Exhaust Solenoid.
Replacing them both at the same time isn’t a bad idea either. 😀

Thanks for the replay i have code p0011 and my mechanic said it has to do with oil pressure or bad quality oil does it make sense?does the solenoid problem its common for chevrolet malibu 2013? My car drove only 56000 kilometres a bit too soon?
igor zamorski
Thanks for the reply & unfortunately this is an extremely common issue with Chevy engines lately. It’s possible that the oil grade caused your error code.
This engine requires Synthetic Oil & if Synthetic Oil is drained & Conventional Oil is added, it may trip the sensor as it is noticing a downgrade in required oil.
Hope this helps. Keep us posted!

Great question. Same part however may be I’d different location on engine. We recommend purchasing part from Dealership. Did your code say Intake Solenoid or did it say Exhaust Solenoid?
Make sure you purchase correct Solenoid! 😎👍

There should be second page code on the scanner that will indicate if it’s Intake or Exhaust.
