Resetting the check engine light on the Chevrolet Malibu is a very easy task. You can do it in 4 to 8 minutes of Your personal time. To begin, You will need to go to the driver's side of Your vehicle, and get inside. Now, look at the dash, and insert Your key into the ignition. Turn it quickly to the on position, then back off again. Do this while ensuring You do not accidentally turn on the engine itself. Do this two times total, in quick succession. This will fully reset the check engine light, and it will no longer illuminate on Your dashboard.

To reset a check engine light on a malibu insert your key into the ignition, turn the vehicle on for about a second, and then off for about a second.
The recommendation for turning it on for a sec then off for a sec worked successfully for my 15 Malibu

Find another mechanic to take your car to... That one don't know what they're doing... Or maybe Crooks...
