Thanks very much, Blue_SP20! Have just followed your instructions on our 2005 Mazda 6 TS and it worked perfectly, saving us an expensive trip to the dealer. Thanks again!

 

Hey Blu,

Will the codes you provided work in my 1989 Mazda RX7?

 

This worked for my 2003 Mazda MX-5 1.6 bought in the UK-

do the whole - 6, AM, AutoM, Seek up, but enter the code as 1414, then press and hold AutoM and 6.

good luck, cant believe one dealer quoted me £150 to do this! robbery

 

Hello, The display of my radio shows ERR after 3x entering the wrong code.

I know you can unlock the anti-theft mode by using the controls of the radio.

Can someone tell me which keys I need to use and in witch order?

Thanks

 

I have found the solution:

switch your car in contact
push 1 by 1 the following key
6 - AM - AUTO-M - SEEK^
4 dashes appears
Enter code 4989 by using the select buttons 1-6
press and hold down the AUTO-M and 6 button until GOOD appears.
Now your carradio is from its anti-theft mode back to factory setting

 

Huge thanks to BlueSP20 for the original post, and then to a123matt. The 4989 code didn't work on my 53 323, but matt's did. I've been without a radio/ CD from a few weeks since my battery went dead, and tried the first code a dozen times with no joy. Came back on here to find the new code, which worked a treat. I'd been quoted £15 by the Mazda dealer, but they are 25 miles away, so it would have been a fair bit of petrol and time on top. Delighted!!

 

I bought my Mazda 5 (Netherlands - 2005) 2nd hand and ran into the same problem after the battery was down. the 1st owner didn't knwe any code and after 3 attempts ' error'. I googled myself to the mazdaforum and tried both the code 4989 and 1414, but obtained the errorcode after that. Is there someone with a new suggestion tot deal with this?

Thanks for getting me this far and hope I reach the end.
