WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Mazda Tribute. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
- The security access procedure is utilized to obtain passive anti-theft system (PATS) security access. PATS security access must be granted to erase ignition keys, and enable/disable the spare key programming switch (PID SPARE KEY). The security access procedure invokes an inherent 10 minute time delay prior to granting security access during which the WDS or equivalent Tester must remain connected to the vehicle. Once security access has been granted, a security access command menu is displayed which offers various command options.
