Remote / key fob programming

On a Mazda without the Smart Entry system, you can program a remote yourself from the driver's seat — no tools needed.

Key programming

You can add a new key to this Mazda yourself if you already have two keys that start the engine. The new key must be cut first, and it has to be a genuine key — a cloned hardware-store key won't work.

Mazda 5 key fob battery

Your Mazda 5 key fob uses a CR1616 3V lithium coin cell. A fresh one typically lasts 3–5 years.

How to replace the battery

1 Look for a small notch or screw on the side of the fob where the key blade meets the buttons.
2 Pry the housing apart with a coin or small flathead (or remove the screw).
3 Pop out the old coin cell, noting its orientation.
4 Insert the new battery the same way up, then snap the case shut.
5 Test the buttons — if they work, you're done.

Battery tips

Use a fresh, name-brand 3V lithium cell — bargain cells drain quickly.
Try not to touch both faces of the new battery; skin oils shorten its life.
If the buttons still don't respond after a new battery, the remote may need re-syncing or programming.
