What can be wrong when my 2001 Malibu won't start lights are out horn won't blow and the battery is good?
one thing it could be is the alternater. a good way to find out is to recharge your battery and when you turn on the car, while the car is on unplugge the the battery if the car turns off its the alternater if it stays on the alternater is good and it could be the battery. but if its a new battery then more likely its the alternater. A more common problem is simply dirty wire connections. Disconnect the battery, the starter, and the alternator. Purchase some electrical parts cleaner and a wire brush (if you don't already have one) from a local parts store. Spray the connections, brush, and spray again to remove loose contaminates. Then reconnect all wires, and give it a try!
