Commander Switch Removal/Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mazda 6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
  • The audio unit communicates with the commander switch and records the presence/non-presence of the commander switch when the ignition is switched to ACC or ON (engine off or on) after connecting the negative battery cable.
  • If the commander switch is installed with the negative battery cable connected when the audio unit records that there is no commander switch, the commander switch does not operate.
  • For the commander switch installation/removal, disconnect the negative battery cable, switch the ignition to ACC or ON (engine off or on) after the servicing is completed, and the audio unit records the presence/non-presence of the commander switch.
  1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION [SKYACTIV-G 2.5] .)
  2. Remove the upper panel (See UPPER PANEL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
