1 Quick Question!
 
How do i know if it is my remote to the car broken or some sensor in my car broke? My remote isnt working and i tired changing battery. And any clue on how much it cost to fix?

Srry it is actually more like 2 questions!

if you can open the door and starting your car with the key, then the remote or the keyless entry module is not working.

if u cant do anything with your key, tow your car to Mazda and tell them to fix it. hope u're still in warranty tho.

I have had 2 quit working...buy one from e-bay for approx $40 and be done with it.

Not sure why they crap out...but it isn't the battery....and for that priceit'snot worth the time to figure it out :)

yes you would need to program it yourself.. it's a breeze there is a DIY on it.

I don't suppose the problem might be as simple as putting the new battery wrong side up?

Spiker 06-28-2008 11:04 AM

LOLOL 360$ for that and programming at dealer WTF are they thinking? Can some one link me to the DIY on programming?

dannobre 06-28-2008 11:09 AM

It's easy......( both searching and doing the programming :lol2: )
