    Well done. I am to understand that the headlight connectors on the 2012 Malibu were very pieces of junk. So replacing them may be a prudent step. Thank you for this video, hands down the best I have watched on this subject.

    Good video, I replaced the bulbs many times in mine. I know how to get everything apart it's the wiring I do know how to do. My low beam plug is burnt out. I watched your video I was trying to understand which wire is to what. My low beam plug has 3 wires coming out of it but looked up the Replacement plug has 2 wires coming out of it? Can you use crimping connectors on the wires instead of sauter? Thank you

    Great video. I have the same issues with my 2011 Chevy Malibu LTZ and changed bulbs on the driver side like 2x this year and realized the socket was melted. I installed new headlight socket and and spliced together. Hopefully this will solve the issues. Taking out the bumper 1st time two years ago was a pain in the butt. I did twice this year and now I can do much quicker than before.

    Read somewhere that it might be the relay in fuse box-low beam also act as running lights at 40% of normal power and bulbs aren't designed for this and cause a malfunction. Going out to finagle the headlight again( 4 times this year).....it ain't the bulb....duration of fix has been about 30 days......Use high beams to drive at night...no one seems to notice........
