Key Fob Boot Button

Hi,

The boot button on the key fob will not open the boot. The red light [led] shines red. The car locks and opens and did use to work.

Any Ideas Please.

Thank you in advance.

If it's a '04-'05, check the disconnect button in the glovebox.

Did it ever work? Are you pushing and releasing the button or pushing and holding. Maybe that will make a difference.

+1 on holding the 'boot' button down.

If that doesn't work...bunch your keys up in your hand and throw it at your trunk because it's a piece of **** and mazda should replace it

You have boots?

(possible boot fetish)

Like EDZRIDE said, enable the opener in the glovebox.
