2011 Mazda 2. Seven years ago my daughter lost the key and we had to use the spare. I found it a year later down the back of the couch. The buttons no longer worked. FOR SIX YEARS I have been manually locking and unlocking the car. SIX YEARS! I have no idea why this video came up in my feed at 1am as I was going to bed. But I just tried it and it works!!! Thank you!!!!

This works!! It took a few moments to cycle through, but after that I am back in business! Thank you so much for saving me time and money!

Just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU! Your instructions worked perfectly, even though my Mazda is a right hand drive! I'd seen previous instructions about turning the light on and off three times - total twaddle.
I'd just replaced my battery and was very peed off that it wouldn't work. I watched your video once, and 'hey presto' - spot on. Thanks again, you've saved me £££'s. If anyone wants to know I have a 2002 Mazda Premacy Gxi 1.8 litre. Thank you sweetcheeks, I'm thrilled :-D

WOW! worked perfectly. Even the locksmith couldn't do it with his fancy gadgets, but this worked. I'm STOKED! Thanks (2010 mazda 6)

Thanks for this video; it worked and now my wife loves me again! I tried a few times and the last time I skipped the 'lock and unlock door' step and went to the 'press the unlock on the remote twice' and it reprogrammed that time.

Thanks for you help. I'm in Western Australia and your YouTube video just worked for my son's 2009 Mazda 3 hatch in Nov 2020. Love it.

Thank u man! Works like a charm on my 2012 Mazda 2 and also starts working third button for trunk release that i've never had before! Thank you!

I used it on a PK 2011 Ford Ranger with a Key Fob in Australia. Meaning right hand drive. Worked perfectly first time. Thanks for posting the video.

Thank you so much! This totally solved my problem where both my remotes stopped working! The people I talked to all said I should change the battery. After paying $5 to change one, nothing happened so I found your video when I googled the problem, did the steps at the same time as you, and it worked!!

Many thanks for this video, it was annoying me that I couldn't get my central locking to work after changing the battery in the fob but this video showed me where I was going wrong 👍

7:49 PM, 6/21/2021 - just programmed a fob for my Protege5, with the help of this video. Thank you!

[williekreuz]

Thank I just programmed my remote by following your directions 😀

[MellowMadnessRMX]

Wow it actually worked on my 2006 mazda 3. Took 3 tries but finally synced. Thanks

[MohGab]

I bought yesterday two new keyfob remote control.  I will try programming them next week.  Hope this steps will work.

[vincemyaka]

Thank you so much bru, my key just stopped working after i removed the battery, tried ur instructions and it worked instantly.

Lost of words but thank you so much appreciate it

[michaelrussell]

Thank you - followed your instructions and it worked spot on. I have noted that some other instructions say to remove the key from the ignition after turning the ignition on and off three times however this did not work for me. Leaving the key in the ignition as per your instructions worked. Thanks again and all the best - Cheers.

It worked like a charm on my 2003 Mazda Protege5! Thank you very much. It was the second time I had to reprogram the remote key. The first time I went to a Mazda dealer and the key was reprogrammed at no charge, but it's much more convenient (and empowering!) to be able to do it myself! Thanks again.

[rbranxx]

You're a genius, It was so simple to reprogram my Madza Protégé 5. I followed instructions to the letter and figured it out on the first attempt. You have no idea how much your video helped. I saved myself 100.00 dollars or more programming my own vehicle. Again, thanks alot.

Worked great on my 2008 mazda 3. Was not a smart remote key, but never came with keyfobs. So an aftermarket keyfob and this video gave me keyless entry after owning the car for several years not having it.

Thanks heaps! Struggled to find the right thing to do for my KQ Ford Laser. This worked a treat! (Mazda 323/ Ford Laser are very similar). Legend!
