As an American, I would say: If your Chevy Cobalt's computer starts acting weird, your first step should be checking for error codes using an OBD II scan tool. If the scan comes back clear, you can try resetting the computer. To do this, disconnect both battery cables and touch them together to drain any stored electricity. Keep them disconnected for about ten minutes to allow for a full reset. This usually resolves computer issues and allows for a fresh start.
