2013 Chevrolet Malibu Brake Pad Replacement

Brake Pad Replacement is one of the most common repairs for 2013 Chevrolet Malibu. This repair involves replacing the damaged brakes component with a new or refurbished part. The process typically takes 1-2 hours and requires moderate skill level.

🔧 Required Tools

What You'll Need

• Replacement brakes part (OEM or aftermarket)
• Precision screwdriver set (Phillips #000 or pentalobe)
• Opening tools (plastic spudger, suction cup)
• Adhesive strips or glue
• Clean workspace with good lighting

Step-by-Step Process

Step 1:

Mount the new camera in the space provided.

The camera routes through the bumper of the car and not the license plate.

Step 2:

Run the new wires through the holes provided, and cover with electrical tape.

The new cords will simply connect where the faulty wires were removed.

Step 3:

Coordinate the colored wires to keep the repair simple. Match the new wires to the existing wires through the splitter. Use a wire splitter to expose the wire.

Then simply connect the wires to the wires for reverse light.

Step 4:

The green wire is the camera connection or positive wire and the black is the ground.

This line should already be connected correctly because you should have only switched wires that connected to the camera.

Step 5:

Make sure that the reverse light is working properly when the car is in reverse.

Step 6:

Make sure the display is clear and working properly.
