2010 Chevy Malibu headlight Problem

Asked by hallagran Feb 19, 2015 at 09:38 PM about the 2010 Chevrolet Malibu LS FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

When I start my car with the automatic starter and then hit the unlock to get in - both of
my lowbeam headlights work fine - but when I get in and turn the key in the ingnition - the
passenger side low beam goes out.  If I start the car without using the auto starter and
just the ignition - it does not come on at all.  The highbeams work fine.  I had the bulb
changed on the passenger side less than 2 months ago.  Any ideas what to check?

Check the bulb again,may have went bad,if not bad bulb,check connector and wire,s at it,right and left run off the same circuit.

Ever figure out what the issue was? I'm Javier g the same exact issue right now with my 2011 Malibu
