Mazda MX-5 2004-2009

Procedure

REMOTE CONTROL REGISTRATION

NOTE : All transmitters will need to be obtained from the customer as all transmitters (new or existing) are programmed at one time. If a transmitter is not programmed during this procedure, it will become inoperative.

NOTE : On 2006 model year MX-5 Miata and Mazda5, two types of keyless entry systems have been introduced, each having a different procedure for registering transmitters. To identity which type applies, perform the following steps:

1. Remove key from steering lock and CLOSE all doors and boot or trunk.
2. OPEN driver side door.
3. INSERT key into steering lock.
4. Repeat the following three times:
5. SWITCH ignition switch to ON position, then back to LOCK position.
6. CLOSE and CLOSE driver side door three times (then leave the door open)
7. CLOSE the driver side door.
8. Do the lock actuators perform the LOCK UNLOCK cycle TWICE.

                               NO      :           TYPE A system.

                               YES     :           TYPE B system.

7. The door locks should LOCK and UNLOCK to confirm programming mode.
8. PRESS the UNLOCK button on the first remote transmitter 2 times.
9. The door locks should cycle LOCK to UNLOCK to confirm programming.
10.  Repeat step 8 and 9 for any additional remote transmitters.
