Your Mazda 6 has a remote control key, or fob, that connects to the car's onboard system to unlock the doors and start the engine. It's a fantastic convenience, but could be risky if you lose or get the key. Knowing the function of the key fob is vital to ensure it is safe and has not been misused.

If the key is in ignition or the engine is running, a beep sound will be heard and the operation indicator light will flash. Refer to the warning message displayed in the instrument cluster.

The first thing you will need to do is remove the key metal from the fob. To do this, push the small button on the back of the fob until it pops out. Then make use of a flathead screwdriver to pry open the casing starting on one side, and ending on the other. Be careful not to damage the rubber ring that holds the battery in place. Replace the battery with a brand new one after you have removed it. Reattach the battery case.

Then you can get back on the road in your Mazda.

To begin start, press the auxiliary key button on the back of the fob. This will take away the auxiliary metal key. Now, you'll see slots on both sides of the key fob case.

If you have a Mazda 6 key fob or transponder flip key that has an unresponsive battery, there's an easy way to get it working without having to pay for the services of locksmiths or dealers. The key fob has an identification code that lets it connect to the computer in your vehicle. This code is a unique identifier that allows the fob to unlock your doors and then start the engine. This code can be found on the back of your key fob and can also be found on a sticker inside the ignition.

Keep this code secure in case you require it. You'll save money and time. This code will also be found on the original Mazda key that came with your car. This code is used to program the key, allowing the car to recognize it as a transponder chip or smart key fob.

When you are ready to have a brand new Mazda 6 key made, make sure you note down the year, make and model of your car on an article of paper. This will allow the locksmith or dealer to verify your exact car's year, make, and model so that they can determine if you require a key made of metal or a smart one, or if you need remote. Also, you will require proof of ownership for your vehicle (like the title or registration number, or even an insurance card).

How can I replace the RFID inside the Mazda key fob

Mazda key fobs also known as Mazda chip keys or Mazda transponder keys are equipped with an anti-theft feature called an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) chip within them. The chip emits a unique signal when the button is moved. This signal is interpreted by a receiver inside the car and activates it. Without this chip, even a perfect copy of the key will not start it. What if the key fob chip inside your vehicle dies?

If you're fortunate enough to still have the metal portion of your key, then you can remove the plastic cover of the fob with the screwdriver or pliers (it could be tight) and then remove the chip. Adhere it to tape, then attach it close to the ignition lock. This will allow you to open the doors and turn on the engine while waiting for an alternative.
