I can't remember the site I went to but google "programming keyless remote Chevrolet". After extensive research on this topic, I have come to the conclusion that the newer Malibu remotes have to programmed by the dealerships Tech2 scan tool. The new Chevy trucks can be programmed without the scan tool but the sedans have to be programmed at the dealer.
Look in your owners manual or take it to the Chevy garage.
you will have to get the dealership to do it for you.
My 1999 has it, so likely yes it was available in 2001
needs to be reprogrammed, the only place that i know of that does that is your dealership.
To program the keyless entry remote on a Chevy Malibu, close all doors and put the key in the ignition. Hold down the power unlock button on the door while turning your key to on and off twice. Then release the power unlock button on the door.
