I have a 2008 Mazda 5 Touring - does the ignition portion of this key require special programming?

if you have two current working keys you can program the key yourself. if you only have one key right now a dealer or locksmith will have to perform the programming. thanks!!

Yes, you may go to a Mazda dealership or an automotive locksmith to program your key. The locksmith maybe cheaper compare to the dealership.

I'ved tried to programmed it, but the car just keep cranking without starting.hope this will help.

This key fob is ready to program and use. You must have a working key fob to program it yourself otherwise you will have to take it to the dealer. Hope this helps :)

I used this lock on a 2007 335i Sedan. Replaced just the drivers lock mechanism. NO programming was needed.

Yes this should work in your 2010. Worked perfect in my 2008. 2008 thru 2010 ignitions are identicle. You will need two working remotes to program a new one. I found that my old key held better in the new remote than the blank that comes with it.

If the current one starts the car the new one should work fine. It self programs with simple instructions if you have two current keys that start the car.

If your Mazda come with the key and fob separate then yes it will work. But if your car comes with the key built in to(you know like a switch blade key and fob) the fob it wont work.

You can look for a the way to program it throw the web, but you'll need a pair of working keys. If you don't have the extra keys, will need for a dealer to program it.

Don't know. I have a 2008 Mazda. Try calling a automotive locksmith. In Milwaukee I call Whitlow's Security Specialists (414) 475-0550. They are very knowledgeable and helpful.

The short answer ? Don't buy it. Yes, understood that the key needs to programmed. But it's not as simple as sounds. The locksmith you go to would have to have the same equipment that the key understands. If their programmer is not from the same company, it will not communicate with this key. ALSO, if you get this key, DO NOT try it in your vehicle! Nissan AND a local locksmith both told me the same thing. It could shut your car off and have to be towed to the dealer. ($$$) Best thing to do is go to a local H/W store or other high tech key maker and have them do it.. Good Luck

For free manufacturer programming requirements please go to http://keylessremotes4u.net/programming.php. Some remotes and vehicles require diagnostic programming and you would need to visit your local dealer or locksmith.

You need 2 programmed keys to program it yourself, if you only have one then you would have to go to a locksmith or the dealer to get it programmed.
