Hey guys, I know this isnt really a big problem and i dont really know which forum to put this in but I have a problem I always used my remote to lock the doors unlock and stuff, it stoped working one day so i figure it'd be the batteries! simple problem... How you change the battery inside it? or you bring it back to the mazda dealership? Thanks Guys!

it may need to be re-programmed to work with your car...

i know mine stopped working at one point and when i changed the battery same thing..didnt work (different car though)

if you would like the programming instructions for the MP5 pm me and i will send them (and save you the $XX that mazda will charge)

That would be great! i drive a protege lx 2003! , i changed the battery and it stopped working so i kind of figured it had to be refigured. How do you reprogram? and ho much does mazda charge? b/c i cant leave my car for a day just 4 that to be fixed!
