Steering Lock Unit Id Code Registration [Advanced Keyless Entry And Push Button Start System]

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Mazda 6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CAUTION:

Do not place the following devices in the vehicle while programming, otherwise programming cannot be performed:
- M-MDS
- Personal computer
- Devices that can send/receive radio waves

NOTE:

The steering lock unit and steering lock component are a single unit. Therefore, replace the steering lock component when replacing steering lock unit. (See STEERING WHEEL AND COLUMN REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [WITHOUT ADVANCED KEYLESS ENTRY AND PUSH BUTTON START SYSTEM] ) (See STEERING WHEEL AND COLUMN REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [WITH ADVANCED KEYLESS ENTRY AND PUSH BUTTON START SYSTEM] .)
For this procedure, a programmed card key is necessary. If there is no programmed card key, perform the steering lock unit programming after the card key programming.

Bring the programmed advanced key into the vehicle.
Fully lower the driver-side door glass.
Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
Pull out the M-MDS cable from the door glass opening and set the M-MDS outside the vehicle.
CAUTION:
