need some help
on my 08 cobalt lt, my info button quit working today, it worked fine last night. just took it for a drive my seatbelt light on the cluster is very dim and the check engine light is not on upon start up, with out engine running, like it always was. and now the pass. side airbage light under the radio is not working either. really confused on this one. i called chevy and all it was was a waste of 30 minutes. the car has 25,000 miles on it.
so far this car has sucked ever since i bought it. any info on this will help.

All those use the 201 ground ,located by the steering column .Dont know the exact location just look for a stud with a bunch of wires on it being locked down with a nut and washer.
Might have to just tighten it .

that could be the problem since it did have a 11,000 watt system in it. ill check it out. thanks. btw are there any other grounds for any computer under there, i was told this car has 12 different systems in it. idk if thats true since i can only find 3.
Think you fried something are you?
Maybe melted some insulation off some wires with all the current or cause some bcm damage.look at both for signs of over current damage like blackend wires and connection at the ground and bcm.

Were you able to find the ground mentioned by Coblasts? Hope that tightening the bolt was able to remedy the electrical situation you described!
I don't have any technical information available, unfortunately. If I can assist in other ways, though, let me know.

ok i found the ground, it's to the right of the steering column buy the radio, you can see it from under the dash, but in my case it was still tight and the contacts where still in good shape. i didnt find any burned wires but found a pink remote wire that has no power. i don't know where this goes but i will redo this wire and see what happens..
FOUND IT. the pink remote wire that runs to the center of the car for the defrost, ect. is also for the pass. side air bag light, the check eng. light and the info center on the steering wheel. the wire rubbed and shorted on something causing it to blow a fuse. in car fuse number 16.
