2013 CX-5 Transmission Park Switch Replacement

[muttleytm]

I replaced the park switch on my CX5. There is a small plastic part that clips on the front part of the switch. I noticed that I the legs with the clips on it got stretched out. I put it back on and it did clip in place but probably not as well as it should. It is just a little molded plastic part and should be pretty cheap to replace.

Here is a picture and I've circled part of this part that is visible in the picture. It is a little bigger than this and some of it is hidden in this picture.

Does anyone know what the part number or name is for this part?

I've noticed that places that sell Mazda parts have exploded drawings of things and parts are numbered, but the list of the numbered parts with their names and part numbers are not there.

Thread 'Shift Switch Replacement issue...Any ideas? 2015 CX-5 Automatic'

Jul 8, 2024

So I have a 2015 CX5 2.5 and the radio started staying on after the car was turned off. It is the shift switch is worn but no one can help find the proper switch. Mazda Canada was completely useless and one deal wants me to make an appointment so they can see my car and the other one says I will have to buy the shift assembly at $750 to get that $80 switch which is what that switch costs from Mazda for 2014. The upgraded part is KYD0-46-040 which does not fit my car. It is an automatic. Have not been able to find any scrap yards with a 2015 up in it. Any suggestions besides dumping the...

I read through that thread and looked a few videos on installing a new switch before doing it. I can find a replacement switch, but the part I'm wondering about attaches to it.

One of the videos does talk about this part a bit, I thought it also mentioned a spring that was part of it. I didn't see any sort of spring, so maybe the part has changed. The video didn't give a part number and the description wasn't real clear.

I also noticed in the thread there was a discussion about how the original switch design had a rubber part that wore out and a few suggestions on how to build it up with epoxy or a screw. I was planning on doing that, but the switch I removed looked identical to the one I replaced it with. I got the car used so maybe the switch I replaced was the newer design replacement switch.
