    Fuses and Relays all messed up, need help

    Attached is the relay layout. The relays themselves will either only insert one way, or, if they are symmetrical, if doesn't matter which way they are inserted.

    CX-5 (possibly) Broken Into

    It's true for our CX-5 AND CX-50. I installed Fortin remote start boxes on both, and that includes the alarm functionality, so both now have it :)

    2016 Mazda CX-5 Touring Halogen to LED

    Just FYI, I did the same as @HyFlyer for our 2014. The ones I got were these and (so far) work perfectly fine, with a good cutoff. Note the low beams are projector housings, so the cutoff is performed internally with a shroud. Any bulb should be fine. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CSFP2HLQ...

    Mazda Infotainment Settlement

    Just as an update. In my case the dealer swapped out the screen on our 2019 for a $75 'donation'. More, including a scan of the info on the ticket, here: Ghost Touch screen replacement at dealer - anyone get charged?

    Ghost Touch screen replacement at dealer - anyone get charged?

    Just to follow up on this. I went back to the dealer and got the screen replaced - supposedly under the class action warranty. They did charge me $75, but I didn't think it was worth arguing. Just FYI, this was what they wrote on the ticket. Nothing about class action or warranty, just a...

    2013~2016 CX-5 Ice bushings?

    I'm guessing he said something that you mis-heard (or mis-typed) as "ice bushings". Here's what Microsoft's AI says:
