The most common reason why your 2017 Chevy Malibu may display a "no remote detected" error is typically due to the key fob battery being dead. If you're having trouble unlocking the car and see this error, it's likely that the small battery inside your fob needs to be replaced. If you've changed the battery but are still encountering the error, it could be an issue with the immobilizer. Try resetting your security system to see if that resolves the problem. If the issue persists, there may be a fault with the receiver or body control module, requiring a visit to the dealership for diagnosis.
