Flip-key for mazda 3

[cwp_sedan]

And I assume that with a new car, I get 2 programmed keys....

Correct. You should get 2 keys and 2 remotes with your new car. Then you can use those to program the new flip key.

Thanks for the help guys, it's appreciated!

[srbin]

How much to cut a blank key? would anyplace be able to do it?

Anyone can cut a blank key for you but you won't be able to start the car unless that key is programmed.
If you are thinking of buying the flip-key, just pm FLIP.

...i think you can cut your key at CT for ~$5 (?)...

[FLIPDADY]

Yup you're suppose to.

Hey FlipDaddy, im all the way up north in Sudbury but I want to get a flip key. I'm trying to decide how though...

- What are the actual prices (without the tm3 discount) if I were to order it from any Mazda dealer? Do I need to quote the part numbers?

- I'm trying to arrange for someone in TO to pick up the key & remote. If that works out, how much would it cost to get the key & remote from you? (I'm assuming I can get the key cut here in sudbury from any key cutting place, right?)

[freecity]

question: if the key is cut, but unprogrammed, would it still be able to open the doors?

[FLIPDADY]

Yes, but won't start the car.

The regular price would be $96.41 taxes in without the TM3 discount. I highly doubt that your local dealer will know the proper part numbers required to do the mod.

If you can get someone to pick up the key it will cost you $77.13 taxes in. I can cut a dummy blank for you.

[sunnyhomeboy]

@ taiwan~it comes standard for the flip key~! :)

[FLIPDADY]

Oh for those buying the flipkey off of ebay be cautious. I cut a key for someone and the key would not program. Not all the flip key parts are the same for all Mazda's. The flip key for the 06 MPV cannot be programmed to work with our 3's.

[Tokic_o]

Thanks alot Joe for the flipkey, I'm loving it :chuckle.

Too bad the trunk function doesnt work. But hey, nothing is perfect :)

Hey no need to thank me. Thank the original guy who had to shell out $200 only to find out the cheaper Mazda 6 sedan flipkey works as well.:gone

[x_o_k_x]

is there one for me in stock??

[FLIPDADY]

is there one for me in stock??
I wasn't at work today but give Chris a call tomorrow I'm pretty sure there was one in stock.

[Noisy Crow]

BTW: It's the car that gets programmed, not the key (or the remote). The codes in the remotes and keys are fixed. The dance you have to do with keys, the door, and the ignition is convice your car that the key or remote is legit.

[Ogata]

Does the trunk only work for the Sedans? I assume theres only this version where the key flips to the left side. Are there any that flip to the right side?

The trunk button doesn't work at all, sedan or hatch. No support for it in the cars. As for flipping out the other side... I highly doubt it.

[yearoftherat]

It can not be flipped. I asked Joe @ MOT.
Its a right-handed world. No love for us left-handed people.

Any change these will come or more or less out of luck now / wait for the 09's?

[x_o_k_x]

Cut it at the dealer free of charge and programmed my key myself and works like a charm. Thanks Flip! Took me few tries to program it. Few things to point out, is that you can have a max of 3 keys, but you can program only 2 sets by using 3 sets of keys. Also the steps have to be prformed quick and precise.

[ds2chan]

well, the key does fit into the right side of the steering column so you'll have to be holding the key in your right hand anyways.. I suppose that's the main reason the key only flips out the one way.

[sircracked]

this weekend, I got a flip key, the recomended part #s from this thread, for my new mazda3 (about 1m old, so, assuming an 8.5, but I could look if anyone wants to know). They key works great, programing was a breeze. The remote, however, not so much. I know i've got the car in the programing mode, as i'm able to get response from my other remotes, but it dosn't respond at all to the flip remote, and of course, after exiting the programing mode, dosn't work.

Perhaps some change in the 8 or 8.5? Anyone have any luck programing the remote pictured with a very recent model? I do get a light on the remote with button presses, so, fairly sure it's not a battery issue. Could be a bad remote, but i'd have no way of determining that without getting another one, which I'm understandably reluctant to do without ensuring there hasn't been some kind of compatability change.

K I just got flipkey for my 08.5gt and works great, where did you get it from? and which car is it from? it has to be mazda5 or rx8 i think. And you gotta follow the programming instructions carefully but quick. Also use one of your other remotes in your ignition not your flipkey. Becasue whatever is in the ignition will not get programmed but other 2 will. Try to redo it.

[qycxzerqp]

Just picked it up yesterday from Joe, and got it programmed this morning, took me few tries. Remember, as it says on the instruction, the timing is crucial.

[Cosmo77]

Those are easy

[sircracked]

I got the key and remote from my dealer, I gave them the Mazda part numbers listed elsewhere in this thread.

I tried it with both the remote and a different key in the ignition, nither worked. However, I doubt it's a timing issue. For one, Timing isn't nearly the issue for the remote procedure as it is for the key procedure. Remember, My key works great! The remote programing is what is causing the issue.

I got a slightly different remote that is purported to work better, dosn't have the trunk button, etc.

However, on a very sad note, I won't be able to do any more testing at all on this until late july. My wife rear ended an SUV last week, so, I'll not be seeing my poor mazda for some time. So, I have no idea if my new remote will work, or if any suggestions folks can offer will work.

You shouldn't have any issues at all. As long as you have 2 original keys and 2 original remotes you're good to go.

[Noisy Crow]

From a US board... note that part about:

Note: All 2007+ US Mz3 models (MS3 included) have a different KEU than that in earlier models. Currently there are NO flip key remotes that can be programmed with the US 2007 Mz3 computer. Canadian owners should still be able to buy the Canadian Mz3 flip key.

Mazda 6 according to FLIP. Just got mine from him today and helped me program all three. Works like a charm and now I don't have extra keys poking in my pants! :bana2

You need to use your original key inserted into ignition, that way the other 2(original key, flip key) will get programmed

[lightsandsirens]

Just got the Flip-key from Joe and I love it. I have to figure out how to put a larger key ring on it though to handle all my other keys.

[sircracked]

Please read the question carefully. The key part of what is mentioned in this thread works fine for US vehicles. The remote portion, however, DOES NOT. Another poster found what I did, after some further digging. ALL US MAZDA3'S 07 AND LATER DO NOT RESPOND TO ANY FLIP REMOTE CURRENTLY KNOWN.

The key works fine, and in fact, I'm using mine now that I have my car back. However, the fact that the remote doesn't work kind of defeats part of the point of having a flip key, namely, less crap on my keychain.

Note, as far as I can tell from searching, this only applies to US vehicles. I realize this is a Canadian forum, but it is also one of the top, if not THE top, search result on Google for a Mazda3 flip key, so you're probably going to see a lot of US visitors as well, and it pays to be clear that this thread does not work completely for new model US cars.

That is, unless ANYONE has any experience to the contrary, with the REMOTE portion of the flip key working (not JUST the key portion)

[FLIPDADY]

Maybe U.S. customers can only use the remote available on the Speed 3? It's the same 3-button remote found on the Mazda 6 hatch.

[amorak]

Hey guys - an update.

I have my girl's remote's info, which is:

I have a Canadian Mazda3, for which the US-spec Mazda3 flip key works. My remote info is:
FCC ID: KPU41846
IC: 4238A-41846
VISTEON: 41846

However, the info on the one from ebay is:

FCC ID: KPU41788
IC: 4238A-41525
VISTEON NO. 41524



Now, two questions:

1) The auction says it works on a Mazda6, and that's what we need. But my number's are different - Will it work?

2) How come my FCC, IC and Visteon nubmers all ahve the same "41846" in it, whereas the ebay one is all different?

Hey guys,

I bought my Mazda3 flip key like I mentioned, but I jsut got it and the key portion rattles around a lot, as the key blade is thinner then the insert in the remote, I think :(

This is what I get for ordering off fleabay, I guess :flaming


Can anyone tell me, is this normal, and I am just used to my Audi flip key? or can I order a replacement key blade from Flipdady that will not rattle?

I have posted two videos to youtube from my cell (excuse the sh*tty quality), which attempt to demonstrate the problem:


[b]1st You Tube Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keltEQMn5k8)

[b]2nd You Tube Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qrQXEclNbk)


Can anyone tell me if this is right or wrong behaviour for a Mazda flip key? If so I am really upset, this is terrible quality :(

Why oh why did I have to cheap out!

[FLIPDADY]

Looks like the key has been dropped.

[sircracked]

amorak, I have one uncut keyblade part, and two remotes that fit it well, from my attempt to create a flipkey that I posted earlier. It looks identical to the key part which works perfectly in my Mazda, but nither remote I have works for me. Don't know if it's your key part that needs replacing, or the remote part, but I'd be willing to hook you up with one or possibly both. Send me a message about it. It shouldn't be much $$, I had written these parts off as waste on an effort that unfortunately failed, or, became too cost prohibitive to continue. From what I've read, however, if you have a CA mazda, these might work fine for you.

Send me a message if you're interested!

Hey Flip,

Just recently bought an 09 Mazda 3 GT Hatchback and want to get the flip key. I just wanted some clarification, for the 2 pre-programmed transponder key, I'm assuming I can use the 2 keys that came with the car am I right? Also, after I program the new flip key, can I still us my old keys, or will they become useless? Sorry, I've gone through all the postings and I don't think I found an answer to some of my questions.

If I want the flip key, could you still help me order it?

Thanks

[x_o_k_x]

you can only have 2 active keys at a time. So if you program flipkey, the key the other key becomes disabled

Hey guys new here, I've been lurking around the forum for a while as I had a long wait for my mazda3; 2 months to be exact... Finally decided to join as there is tons of helpful info/people on here! Anyhow, I was really disappointed in the stock key that came with the 3, everytime I looked at my brother's honda key (one piece key/transmitter). After I've read this post, I definetly want to get this flip key. I'm actually planning on going to the dealer and picking one up tomorrow. Just wanted to make sure I have the right info in hand. As I understand it the only flip key that will work is the one from the mazda6?? Now is that hatch or sedan? and what years?? a part # would be great! Also if anyone has done this what is the ballpark cost, for key, cutting and programming. Any info is greatly appreciated!

I'm really stumped with your dilema. The only thing I can think of that could have happened is that they sold you the flip-key from the MPV. It looks exactly the same as the one's majority of the members have. Only it cannot be programmed to work on our 3's.

[Noisy Crow]

Post up the part numbers... you need separate the button and key portions to see the numbers. You can get the two halves of the key apart by using a small screwdriver to press in the latch that holds them together... it's at the bottom of the slot the key folds into.

[FLIPDADY]

The dealer sold him the correct part numbers. It's possible that he was given the wrong flip-key.

They said no because they probably never tried. Well next time you see them tell them that MOT has sold 6 "normal" Mazda 3 keys already.:chuckle A regular Mazda 3 immobilizer key is $40. Programming is the same.

Is it possible for ukr_boy to buy a brand new 09 MZ3 Sport from a Canadian dealer (way out in Calgary, but that shouldn't matter) but got a US model?

The car is definately a Canadian spec 3.

Im assuming this is pointless if you drive a gx and dont have remote entry to begin with?
[or are the receptors all there just waiting to be accessed?]

if you dont have remote entry then the buttons on the flip key would be pointless..luckily my gx came with power locks:)

yea thats what i figured.
$70 is a lot for a big fob that does nothingfor me. lol

[cooldude117]

What are the model numbers on the remote that will work with an 09? I'm looking for one on eBay and want to be sure that I'm getting the right one. Numbers that are specified in the auction: Visteon Model Number, FCC ID and IC.

Thanks

Hi Joe,

I just picked up my 09 Mazda 3 GT HB and I am wondering if you can let me know how much will it cost (including everything) to get a flip key/remote works for my car and could you please send me your contact information.
Thanks!

I am looking for a flip key + 3 buttons remote for my 2009 M3 Sport.

Yesterday I asked Markham Mazda and Avante Mazda, they quoted me the key at $65.71 and the remote at $144.94 = total of $210.65.

Where can I get the flip key + 3 buttons remote at lowest price in Toronto, ON?

Will these work on my 2009 M3 Sport?
G2YA-76-2GXB - Flip Key ($37.93)
GP7A-67-5RYB - Remote ($25.50)

Can please someone help me out?

I will go see Joe on this Thursday.

The total price including taxes is $91.XX.... way cheaper than the stupid Parts Departments from Markham Mazda & Avente Mazda.

Thank you very much!

I've got my flip key from Joe and he is amazing with the speedy programming.

anyone's flip key start to fade on the logo portion? My trunk button though as uselss as it is is starting to fade and theres a dot on the unlock portion of my key not to mention the mazda logo is abit scratched...better take good care of it more now that its been a year.

This would prolly be the last mod I ever do when I get to it as a nice personal touch. I saw my frds key for his G35 and I was like ohhhh lollll

[BM3]

Apparently an advisor that use to work at Markham Mazda told me there's a spring mechanism that we can add to the HB to make the trunk button work. Anyone able to confirm?

He is wrong. Your hatch is already open when you unlock the doors. The sedan is the only one that I'm aware of that has the ability to add a trunk popper, but I still don't think it will work with the remote (trunk release button specific) as proven in the past.

one more question... is the actual chip in the top part where the key blade is or is it in the button part? Will an RX8 or CX7 complete unit work? Sorry I am reading so many threads and I'm so confused. The RX8 has the exact same numbers as the one I got from Joe a long time ago.

Hi Everyone,

I used to have 2 remotes. Now only have 1. Thanks to my 2 year old Golden Retriever who thinks if it is in view he gets to eat it. Anyways, I saw this post and thought about getting the the flip key for me and my wife can have the other remote.

My 1 remote has the following:

Mazda
P/N:0000-8F-F06
FCC ID:GOH-PCCEN2
IC:3954A-TN400
P3465

4 Buttons (panic, lock, unlock, start)

My wife went to go to the store and she used her key and when she unlocked and opened the door, the car alarm went off, since she did not have the remote she had to run back into the house and grab my keys to turn the alarm off. Is this normal? I thought since she had a key that would unlock and start the car that everything would be ok, guess not.

What costs would I be looking at for the flip key? or if I just wanted to get another regular remote. I also should mention that the car has remote start as well, not to sure if this would be a problem with the flip key.

Thanks for the help.

You have the OEM remote starter. Do you have your original 3 button remote? They're suppose to keep them in your glovebox or give them to you. A flip-key won't solve your problem since the mazda remote starter has an extra panic feature.

The alarm will still go off. So you would need to get a replacement remote starter transmitter.

[seelsy]

i have an 09 mazda 3 GS sedan and my key fob has the trunk release button that works, so if i get the flip key, will that trunk button still work?

[FLIPDADY]

Malam the battery can be replaced. I sell them for $5.41 plus tax. I can replace it for you on the spot.

Been there, done that. Only a couple options to use a trunk popper. The trunk release button on the remote will never work to pop the trunk though.

do you think the trunk popper on the flipkey wont work even though ive got it on my stock key fob working?

[ElegantGremlin]

If it was working on the one you got, I don't see why not... just have to be programmed the same way. Although, I could see it being a problem since the transmitter isn't from the Mazda 3...

Hello from New Zealand!

I have a JDM SP23 Axela, which comes factory with the flip key. However i lost it a few weeks back whilst hooning on my motorbike. What are the chances the the US spec RX8, Mz6, Miata remote, would work with my Japanese mazda.

I think Audi have different remote frequencies depending on their country of origin.
Your thoughts please callers.

Kind regards, Simon

I have an '06 Mazda3 and I've been trying to figure out how what flipkey's will work with my car. I called my dealership just to find out how much it would be just to get a flip key cut and was told I couldn't get one for my car.

Is this because the newer flip keys won't work in a '06?

Does it matter what year the flip key's are from? of course I'd like to get the latest one if possible

[TheMAN]

you can't just call any dealer up and ask them for one blindly... almost all of them don't know you can parts bin one off another car to make it work!

READ this thread, it'll answer all of your questions

[Seonac]

Has anyone seen the 2010 Mazda3 key fob conbination?

Does it flip out and can we CUT and PROGRAM it for 2004-2009 Mazda3 models?

I was looking to find out if anything came from this?

FlipDady posted pics of the '10 Mazda3 Key but not the Flip Key here (http://www.torontomazda3.ca/forum/showpost.php?p=383447&postcount=333).... No one confirmed if the '10 Flip would work with any 04-09 model (unless I missed it somewhere, which is quite possible).

And here (http://www.torontomazda3.ca/forum/showpost.php?p=81944&postcount=1), in the very first post it lists that the transmitter for the Mazda 5 works but I thought read it somewhere in here (can't find it right now) that a Mazda5 Key/Transmitter wouldn't work.

From what I gather from here, please correct me if I'm wrong, the transmitters from Mazda6 sedan, RX-8, Miata or Mazda5 will work and since all the flip keys are the same any uncut for these will work, is that right?

Could anyone with a 06 Mazda please confirm if the FCC ID SKE125-01 will work?
I found this on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260455017316&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT).

Hi there,

I have very similar questions to many members here...

I am currently looking for a spare set of flipkey + remote for my 2009 Mazda 6 (Canada). I've tried a couple of ebay sellers without any luck because we are in Canada. Here is what I've found out from the local Mazda dealership:

KEY G2YA-76-2GXB $68.36
REMOTE GS4B-67-5RYA $154.58 (dealer claimed this is different from 2008)

Of course, I am not going to buy them at that price from the dealership. But I could not find a reliable source/shop to get the remote part of the set. The remote part # is different from "GP9C675RYB" and I am wondering if it's a different remote for sure for the 2009 Mazda 6 (Canada)?

Further more, when I opened the key, I've found the following:
5WK43451D
HP315MHZ
032908

No FCC# or ID#.....

Any suggestion or advice?
Regards,
Andy

I was there 2 days ago and needed a FOB reprogrammed and a key made and was going to go with the flipkey and those prices are right. Unfortunately, the tech could not seem to get the flipkey to work with my car ('06 3 Sport) so I just went with the key and my spare fob.

BTW..the Fobs by themselves (not the flip ones) are almost $200. It's ridiculous.

I went to MoT. The tech couldn't (supposedly) get the flip-key (fob part) to work with the car so instead he ended up just doing a key alone (since I had a spare fob anyways, it wasn;t a huge deal). They charge an hours labour for it too...good thing the dealer where I bought my car is paying for it,

did your car come with 2 sets of keys?

[taz4432]

did your car come with 2 sets of keys?

I'm sure it did originally. When I got it the dealer only had 1 key and 1 fob. When I picked it up he had managed to find another fob, although that fob needed to be programmed to the car. Thus I got that fob programmed and a key made and programmed.

Or you want to save money, go to Rone/HD to cut a key about $3.29 then uses some tool to cut the end the same in the picture above or uses the one you're already have to make at a template to cut it. The key blank plus transponder is for $57 from the dealer.

FYI to those with 2007 Mz3 Sport GT.

I just got my flip key cut and programmed it myself using the instructions from the beginning of this thread.

Part numbers that worked for me (provided by Flipdady; thanks again man):
GP7A-67-5RYB - transmitter
G2YA-76-2GXB - flip key

Cheers,

Just got my 2nd flip key in the mail. The remote is now working. I will go to the dealer tomorrow to get the key transponder programmed and cut.

For 05s MAKE SURE the remote is FCC ID:KPU41788

How much do they charge to pgmming and cut?

[stevenma188]

I got the key cut at Home Depot free of charge. Programming was just under $80 including tax at Probart Mazda here in London.

Got the flipkey from Joe last week and programmed it myself.
Works great and feels great! One of my buddies has a flip key for his golf and he kept complimenting on how the mazda one feels a lot more solid.

Does anyone know the specs of the 2010 ones? They look the same, but I'm not sure if the remote transmitter is the same.

Hi there,

I have very similar questions to many members here...

I am currently looking for a spare set of flipkey + remote for my 2009 Mazda 6 (Canada). I've tried a couple of ebay sellers without any luck because we are in Canada. Here is what I've found out from the local Mazda dealership:

KEY G2YA-76-2GXB $68.36
REMOTE GS4B-67-5RYA $154.58 (dealer claimed this is different from 2008)

Of course, I am not going to buy them at that price from the dealership. But I could not find a reliable source/shop to get the remote part of the set. The remote part # is different from "GP9C675RYB" and I am wondering if it's a different remote for sure for the 2009 Mazda 6 (Canada)?

Further more, when I opened the key, I've found the following:
5WK43451D
HP315MHZ
032908

No FCC# or ID#.....

Any suggestion or advice?
Regards,
Andy

I just wanted to keep the forum updated on my quest of finding a spare switchblade key.
Because the 2009 Mazda 6 were giving me a lot of problems (for a brand new car), I actually ended up with a 2010 Mazda 6. This time around, I have the FCC ID (BGBX1T478SKE12501SKE125-01) and was able to find a seller on ebay that carried a “4 button” switchblade key for the Mazda 6. Most of the SKE12501 remotes are of 3-button version on the web. Note: I don't think the part number matters much if you have the correct FCC ID...

The most difficult part of the whole thing was finding the correct remote with the matching FCC ID. And then, getting the key cut at local locksmith. The easiest part being the programming the key fob and the remote using instructions found on many Mazda forums.

It's good to have a cheap spare key. :)

[htc***]

I think this remote (FCC ID: BGBX1T478SKE125-01.) will work for 2010 M3, 5 and 6.

[vertigo]

My remote just died, so I may as well do the flip key thing. Thing is, I bought my car used and only got 1 key and remote, so I'm gonna have to get a dealership to program it.

Getting the key section, the remote, having the key cut and then the remote programmed... This is going to be at least $300, isn't it?

[stevenma188]

I paid less than $50 for the key off ebay, got Home Depot to cut it for free, then paid the dealer $80 to program it.

Actually no, there is no need to get it programmed from the dealer. If you purchase it from Joe at MoT, he will cut the key for you free of charge and you can program it yourself. It comes with instructions on how to program and it can be done in like 4 minutes. Its extremely easy to do.

As for having only 1 key, i think that will work too. Because from what I recall, you stick your original key in first, and then u put in the flip key and u do something. The instructions are on the site somewhere, i've seen it. You need to search it up. Im pretty sure you only need 1 key to program it

[ckz]

From what I've read, you will need two keys to program the 3rd key. But for remotes, you can program the 2nd one even if you just have one.
Think about this, key is more important than remote. If it only takes one key to program the spare key, any friend or person that borrow the car from you can potentially have a dup. key...

You might be right. I cant remember as I did this for my gf's car almost 2 years ago

[FLIPDADY]

You need 2 original keys to add a 3rd one. If you only have 1 you hae to visit the dealer.

As for adding a 2nd remote as long as you have 1 it's the same procedure to program it.

[Frenchmanremy]

So I ordered the Miata 05 key, and attempting to find a cheaper blank on e-bay.
Any news on wether or not it works well with the 05 Mz3 sport?

[stevenma188]

For 05s MAKE SURE the remote is FCC ID:KPU41788

^Has to match that FCC ID.

[Frenchmanremy]

Can a dealership check the FCC ID? cause they only have part numbers.

[stevenma188]

If you physically look at the key, it has the FCC ID on it. You need to separate the key part from the fob, and it says on the inside the FCC ID.

[htc***]

You can see this thread (post #376) to find the FCC ID

[hzavery]

Anyone have any success with a 2009 M3?
Part numbers would be greatly appreciated!

[htc***]

If you don't have any remote at all. I think you can program it because everytime you do, it will erase the old remote from ECU (I think what it called) which wait for program remote to responde to it (Max out 3 remotes).

I think this (FCC ID: BGBX1T478SKE125-01.) will also work for 2009, if you know someone has it then ask them let you borrow and try to program it. If it works then you know what FCC ID you're looking for.

[howitts_done]

Do I need to have a new key cut or can I just use the key part from my old flip remote?

[stevenma188]

You're going to need a new key. You can buy blank key blades for the remote on ebay for ~$10 i think.

[coriolis]

You're going to need a new key. You can buy blank key blades for the remote on ebay for ~$10 i think.

This is correct. The key is a part of the flip key.

[howitts_done]

Why can't I just remove the key part from my old flip key remote and attach it to the new new flip key remote?

[Rippetoe]

If your key is still working there is no reason not to transfer it to the new remote.

Any online sellers that are selling the flip remote that works with 07 mazda 3? I am looking for one with the remote and the chip built in so I just need to cut it and program it once I get it. I am looking to spend ~$40 on it.

there isnt much on ebay....
I'd like to get one too, I only have one remote for my car right now

I have an 06 Mazda 3 Hatch and my FC ID is KPU41846.

Has anyone had any luck finding a flip key that works with this ID? I searched eBay and just the regular fobs came up. I tried KPU41788 (for the 07s I believe) and tons of flip keys came up.

[VaderX]

My 07 has KPU41846 too

[RatTub]

Is there a 4 button flip key remote that works with a Canadian 2009 Mz3?
If anyone got one to work, I'd like to know the FCC#!

[RatTub]

Also, has anyone been able to verify that the trunk popper actually works on the 2009 3?

[enrobso]

Malam the battery can be replaced. I sell them for $5.41 plus tax. I can replace it for you on the spot.



Swing by the dealership with both remotes and we'll try it no charge to see if it works.:)

Did the 4 button flip key fob work for the 2009 Model with that has a trunk release option included? I currently have a 2009 M3 and my original fobs have a working trunk release button. I am hoping to get a flip key that can have all 4 buttons working.

Here is a question tho that I'm not to sure if it has already been answered.

I have two keys right now, and 1 fob. If i buy two of these flip keys, will that work or will I have to lose one of my current keys. Basically, ideally I'd like to have my wife and I with flips, and then the spare with the fob, and just not use the other spare key by it's self. Has anyone done this, is it possible? thanks in advance and sorry of this has already been answered already.

I think you allow to have 8 transponder keys and 3 remote fobs. The flip key has 2 part (up part has key and tranponder. Bottom part has remote fob).

Has anyone had any luck for a flip key with the this id (KPU41846)?

The safest way is to get the remote part from MoT (better yet, get the whole thing). The key part you can get from ebay as its the same for all years (it should be way cheaper than getting it from the dealer and you can get it cut pretty much anywhere (few exceptions ofcourse).

[dhlwtu]

What is MOT charging? What does it include??

[VaderX]

Just send FLIPDADDY a PM for the latest pricing. There are two parts - the key and the remote (each is sold seperately i believe)

I got my OEM Mazda flip key form a Mazda dealer cross border. He cut and put the keycode in for $115. I doubt anyone here can even come close to that price. Oh.... and I programed it myself for free :) Took me 4 minutes!

[VaderX]

I think the OEM mazda flip is cheaper than $115. I think I got mine for like $80. Programmed it myself as well.

[Impressive]

If anyone goes and follows the steps that Ryan (cwp_sedan) posted on that picture, make sure that when you're done locking and unlocking the doors with the power locks and you put your key into the ignition, make sure to turn it to ON and OFF THREE times within 10 seconds before attempting to open and close the drivers door. This wasn't in the steps and I was just outside for 20 minutes longer than I should've been trying to figure out where I went wrong.

Just a heads up. My flipkey is programmed now and ready to go.

Got my flip key from Joe at MoT yesterday ... everything works great. Had Joe prepare all the paper work so I could run in during my lunch time, get it done and run out! Everything went smooth until the key cutter motor died hahaha ... but he got it done manually! I programmed the key myself painlessly. Thanks Joe! :)

I'm in Windsor, about 4 hours away. Is there a way to get this shipped?

1) I bought my Mz3 used, would I have to update Mazda with my owners info so that you can access my VIN and customer info to cut it?

2) IF I was to go the route of getting on of the OEM ones off Ebay, and even tho they say it will work for my Mazda 3 GT 2006, the FCD ID don't match up (Mine is KPU41846), is there a difference than that one shown here BRAND NEW MAZDA KEYLESS ENTRY REMOTE KEY FOB UNCUT!!! (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190494689392&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_1392wt_1165). I know that will be $50 shipped to me, then I would have to pay for cutting and then reprogram myself, but it would save a trip to Toronto.

3) If you do ship, can you program it as well? My friend lost her second key while in Detroit and is not having issue with Windsor Mazda to get a replacement key... they want to charg her something ridiculous like $300!!!

4) What is the MAIN difference between the Canadian FCC# for the FOB and the American FCC#?

Thanks for any help everyone!

He did it for my 2006 for $197 total.

[Jaysan]

I got my from Joe aka Flipdady for roughly $80+tax.
My car is a 2008, but I don't think that matters much.

Danggggg, that's pretty pricey eh. Is it exactly like the original mazda flip keys?
Do you feel like it was worth it though?

That is a high price. Was that for 2 keys?

The flipkey comes in two pieces; the remote and the key, which snap together. Both together, plus programming and cutting, is $197 taxes included.

My friend is looking to install a keyless entry kit and wanted a flip key as well.
She has a 2010 M3 GS sedan.

Know any shop that can give her a good price?

If you have 2 keys already, and visit Joe at MoT you'll only pay $96 if you're capable if programing it yourself (very simple).

Great news!

So here\'s the breakdown for the flip key and remote:

Flip key: $39.26
Remote: $26.82

TM3 price and taxes in $76.00.

maybe an early production 2010. as the later production with the slight bumper change maybe it was something they added as my gs sedan has a flip key and the gfs hatch gx has one as well.

It won't work with your car with this FCC ID. This one (FCC ID: KPU41788) will work for 05 Mazda 3 hatch and I think 04 Mazda has the same if your remote has FCC ID: KPU41846

CAN ANYONE HELP!

I recenlty purchased a key switch blade remote for my 2007 Mazda 3 Sport U.S. version. The model and manufacturer code for the remote is Visteon 4238A-41525. My question is "Does this model remote only work on the Canada Car Models? I took the remote to a Mazda Dealership here in Cerritos California, and they managed to program the key for the ignition only and not the door remote functions. I found that strangely odd since I purchased the remote from a company website who deals only with car remotes, and is located in the U.S in the state of Ohio. Their website clearly stated that the remote would work on a 2007 Mazda 3 model. To make matters worse, when the technician keyed the blade it would only work for the ignition, and not the door. Therefore, I currently have a remote that will only work to start the car, and has no access of entry. Is there a way to program the remote to work for the lock/unlock functions? Is it possible the technician was doing something wrong or didnt know the current ay to program these functions on this type of remote? I require your expertise in this matter and would greatly appreciate any information you can provide to resolve this matter.

Thank You in Advance!

Step 1: Open driver side door and leave open.

Step 2: Lock and Unlock the drivers door using the power door lock switch on the door

Step 3: Insert key into the ignition.

Step 4: Turn Key to ON position and return to Lock (off) position. Do this 3 times within 10 seconds. LEAVE key in the ignition in Lock (off) position.

Step 5: Close and open the drivers door 3 times. Leave door open after this step

Step 6: ECU should respond by locking and unlocking the doors once.

Step 7: Press any button on remote #1 twice. ECU responds by locking and unlocking the car doors.

Step 8: Additional remotes, repeat Step 7 for up to 3 remotes total.

Step 9: Remove the key from the ignition and the ECU will respond a final time with a series (about 4) of door locks and unlocks. You're done!

[Krfuew]

Thanks for the instructions...I followed it step by step, but still no response from my remote. I did some further investigation, and I have been informed that there is currenlty no flip keyless remote that will work on any U.S. Mazda 3 2007 and newer Models. However the instructions you provided are correct. and I will need to go out and buy a remote that does not have a flip key attached. Thanks Again!

It's been a month now since I switched over from a 1999 Honda Civic SI to a 2007 Mazda 3 Sport (U.S. Model). I must admit I do enjoy driving my Mazda 3, except for 1 minor dilema. I recently purchased a flip key remote for my car and I come to find that the car will not transmit with the unlock/door functions on the remote. I have done a lot of resarch latlely, and I have discovered that there is currently no flip key remote for any Mazda 3 2007 - Higher Models. I am filing a claim against the company who sold me the remote stating that it would work on my vehicle; all I am asking is for a refund. Anyhow, with that said I was still able to program the other part of the remote to the ignition to start my vehicle. However, the key that was cut on the remote will fit into the ignition and turn, but when I insert the key into the door key hole to open manually it will not work. Does this just mean it's a bad duplicated key or does the fact that the unlock/lock features on the remote transmitter do not work have something to do with it?
