stays on when the ignition switch is 
turned to the ON position, the 
engine will not start.

or from a transceiver or a mobile

remove the ignition key and wait 2 
seconds or more, then reinsert it and 
try starting the engine again. If it

contact an Authorized Mazda 
Dealer.

continuously while you are driving, 
don’t shut off the engine. Go to an 
Authorized Mazda Dealer and have 
it checked. If you shut off the 
engine while the light is flashing 
you won’t be able to restart it.

• Drop the key.
• Get the key wet.
• Expose the key to any kind of 

magnetic field.

• Expose the key to high 

temperatures on places such as
