In the early to mid 90's automakers started the use transponder keys and immobiliser. A transponder chip disarms the immobiliser when the key turned in the ignition. Only a specific programmed key can light up the engine.
When the key turned in the ignition key-pit, the ECU carts an electrical sign to the key. The vehicle will start only if it procures a correct sign msg back.
The technology lock/unlock the door and trunk and sound an alarm remotely. This discrete locks and key enable car anti theft system and more.
The use of Securilock electrical keys launched in 1996 for the Mazda 626
as an optional component. Since 1998 some cars equipped to the brim with PATS II and some with P.A.T.S I.
From year 2000 Mazda use the electric PAT with an encrypted transponder chips.
When the key turns, the immobiliser consigns a combination of audio and infrared sign message to the transponder in the key.
The passive theft system key than turning back one of a kind radio-frequency ID to start the engine. If the motor vehicle computer system recognize the identification password, the car will start. Otherwise, few articles, as fuel pump the starter will het no power. The engine will remains disabled or maybe even stranded for couple of minutes.
From 2007 few Mazda models adopt the Intelligent Access with push-button start ignition. This is an optional feature on specific vehicle.
The current Mazda electric keys do make drivers daily life more convenient. Closing and opening the the trunk and doors, sound an alarm to locate a vehicle in a massive parking lot and more.
Now that auto motives use electronic keys, replacing those keys became more expensive and complicated.
Recovering a lost transponder key, it is not enough to merley cut the key like old metal bladed keys. To be able to start the car, a transponder key programmed to match with the vehicle's computer. If all the keys lost, the auto motive computer module reprogrammed to utilize a new key and discard the old one.
This means that you left with two options. The first is to tow the car to the dealer-ship. The second option is to call a mobile lock smith to land to your position to do the job on premises.
Every new Mazda car assembled with two cut and program keys. If owner have both keys, up to 8 supplementary keys made by a straight forward dash-board procedure. This method insure that only the real owner with both original keys can make an extraneous key.
If you lost one key or bought your vehicle with only one passive anti theft key, you have to go to the dealer or to a locksmith. They will use specific equipment to duplicate another key. So basically you better always keep 3 keys around.
If you have 2 working keys and you want to construct an additional key for half the price using the steps below:
If you lost all your keys to a Mazda that made before 1998, your key has no chip. All you need to do is to go to the dealer or to a locksmith store with the VIN and create a new key. This process is quite simple and should cost less than a 100$ in most cases. One exception to the above is if the ignition changed and is not in sync with the VIN.
In the second case a locksmith need to replace the ignition again or to make a new key by reading the key grooves inside the ignition cylinder. This process is more complex and requires a locksmith with the right machine and experience.
If you Mazda made in 1998 and above, your key might contain a chip (check the table above). When losing all the keys to an immobilized Mazda, the ECU reprogrammed to accept a new key. This means that the car towed to the dealership or to use the service of a mobile locksmith who will come out to you.
* Note - In a few old models losing all the keys also means that the ECU is reflashed and programmed with a set of 2 new keys. This make the recovery from a lost key almost double in price.
