I have one slightly dodgy remote key. Pretty sure it’s a real Mazda one. It will occasionally work but is held together with tape and hope so looking to get a replacement. I did the same in my mx5 which shares the same “learning mode” process dance of ignition and door switch. I’ve tried the process several times and it never gets to the stage where it bounces the door locks. HOWEVER, it has had the connector behind the key disconnected to prevent it beeping when the door is open with the key in. Could this prevent it going into learning mode? Assuming I can get it into learning mode are there any other Mazda key fobs or 3rd party fobs that work with the standard set-up? Yr2000 v6 petrol if it makes any difference.

There was an ebayer selling 3rd party copy the other week. Search for P/N: C901 V 7 601, that's original Mazda 315Mhz remote, which is about as common hens teeth. It was a about £50, so a bit of a punt, as I'm not convinced the programming mode will work. In the end, I bottled it and just keep on turning the key!!

Did you find a solution?

Nope
