Crashed my car 2 years ago… miss my Mazda…

Thank you kind sir

Thank you friend, well done 👌👍

it shall be work manually?

Thanks a lot

Thank you! Life saver. I absolutely hate this damn touch screen. Constantly skipping music and going to menus out of nowhere.

My display won't come on

i just fixed my ghost touch issue with by following this video. I was not able to disconnect the ribbon cable, so I just cut it. No more crazy screen issues. It took abiut 15 minutes from start to finish.

I just finished fixing the ghost touch issue in my 2017 Mazda 6 Touring, this post (and the link below on how to remove the trim) were significantly helpful. However, once I had the infotainment screen completely removed from my car, I was unable to completely pry off the back cover to access the circuitry (might be specific to 2017 Mazda 6), so instead I just pulled the back cover as far as I could and then tore off the copper ribbon with some pliers (everything else in the screen and car still works perfectly fine). I was paranoid about removing the trim and accidentally breaking it, but I later realized that it wasn’t hard at all (used a metal putty knife and just started at the ends and worked my way up carefully, just gotta take that first leap of faith and give it a try). The hardest part of the process was the 10mm bolt (removing it was difficult, but putting it back in was the single most difficult step of the entire process). This video (and the link below) both saved me from spending over $1000 to replace with a new infotainment system. th-cam.com/video/vxV_30i05v0/w-d-xo.html

Thanks for the help. I pulled out the ribbon and snapped the plastic connecting the ribbon, but I guess it doesn't matter as I don't want to use the ribbon any more so haha. I suggest if anyone else is doing this to take out the ribbon exactly how you did it and not how I chose to do it. I tried to squeeze it to pull it out as opposed to pinching it out as it didn't feel right to me pinching it out. Turns out I was wrong. Ultimately, problem solved so thanks.

You can go a few steps further and replace the screen digitizer for about $20 US. I'm surprised no one is offering this as a reasonably priced remove and replace service. It is not as difficult as servicing a cellphone screen.

i pulled the cable tab too hard and literally ripped it off 😂 but oh well the touch screens broken anyways

Çok güzel temiz bir anlatım olmuş. 👍 thank you so much

Thanks so much, was reading in a forum to disconnect the ribbon cable but they never specified which of the three.thanks for clarifying. I had my vehicle parked for 6 months and when I restarted it it started going crazy just randomly pressing buttons I assumed it was frozen from winter but still acting up in plus 30 weather. Seen many people say it's the knob I can tell you it's not the knob because if you disconnect the knob it still goes crazy and presses things randomly.

Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does this affect ur touch screen option after doing all this??

Thank you Martinc950! Fixed the issue in 20 minutes. Now working perfectly!

THANKS A LOT! Solution! With no COST ! Now I can listen my music back again

Hi Patrick, I have the same problem but in my Mazda 6 2017. I assume should be the same. Unit looks a little different...

👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻 очень помогло это видео! Большое спасибо 🙏🏻

Do you know how could I replace the display? Do you think it could accept a generic screen? Mine is broken but only the display

Just did this to my 2017 Mazda 6...perfect. No more display issues and $2,400 savings.

Life saver! My car called my ex 6 times in a row so i started driving with a bluetooth speaker. Dealer wanted an ungodly amount for nothin in my opinion, took me 15 minutes. Many thanks 🙏🏽

That will save me so much money. thank you

Thanks for this video. I have another issue with this unit as it has spider cracks on all 4 corners of screen, caused by very cold weather in the Northeast US over 6 years and no garage :). I have seen a video for cleaning out the cracks with a DIY which disables the touchscreen functionality. www.mazda3revolution.com/threads/navigation-radio-screen-issue.209002/. I posted as I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced these cracks in their screen.

Nice!!! Been a month that erratic behavior fucked up my head

Has this worked for anyone with the infotainment system being in a boot loop?

Thank you!!!!

Super easy. Barely an inconvenience! Thanks for posting this. I had worked the infotainment system last year to install the Android Auto/Apple Carplay upgrade, so this was a piece of cake. The only new part was taking the screen off of the computer. The whole job took maybe a half hour and only required a 10mm socket, a Philips head, and a pair of pliers. The reach to get to the screen was so awkward that I don't know how anybody could miss having the functionality. Hard to believe how much of nuisance the touch screen was causing. Phantom presses, phantom phone calls, intermittent responsiveness problems with the command knob, the steering wheel controls, and voice commands. Never cause a problem with the volume controls... maybe because there's no touch screen commands for volume.

Worked in Mazda 6 2017, thanks a lot

Worked on my 2015 Mazda3, just like you demonstrate here, and took no time at all. Many, many thanks!

Saved me so much money!!

What’s the screw size at :59?

Does the warranty cover the cx3?

thanks o lot Martin you help me save 200 dollars

Just wanted to say thanks this thing has been driving me crazy for months but i didn’t want to upgrade due to loosing some features of the stock unit but mine is good to go now!

Great video. This helped me fix the ghost touch issue on my infotainment system. It was changing my radio station at every intersection. For my car though, the ribbon cable had a white latch that you can pull loose with your finger nail so that the ribbon cable can just slide out without using pliers. I would suggest other people who are attempting this fix to check to see if they can loosen the white latch on the circuit board before using pliers.

Thanks for sharing this video. My unit is behaving very strange changing channels, calling different numbers from my phone via bluetooth etc. and it must be related to a touch screen issue as far as I can tell. Will try your fix today. Btw. I also have super poor FM reception. Anything you have noticed on yours?

Guadalajara , Jalisco. Increíble seguí paso a paso y mi Mazda 2016, quedó de maravilla , 1 año sufriendo por ese detalle y al fin , alguien compartió una solución. Gracias !

Hi, very good video, thanks save us tons of money.

Thanks!!!!!!!

Thank you Martin. Clear, simple, precise. Much appreciated.

is this working on mazda 2 g115 ?

I just did this, and it worked perfectly. See this video for instructions on the removal of the head unit: th-cam.com/video/f4Ima1yqAJU/w-d-xo.html Advice to ANYONE working on the interior of any car ... get a trim panel removal set - essentially little plastic crowbars of various sizes and shapes ... it makes removing the trim and panels MUCH easier. This process total took me like an hour, and I was taking my sweet time, being very careful, and multitasking. This is very easy.

They sent out a extended warranty for it but it only covers the touch screen. My issue is that I'm stuck on bootloop and I've never even touched my screen let alone the mini computer

Hi Patrick. There are other you tube videos which show this. First, open the glove box and gently prise off the trim that runs across the dashboard, starting with the lip under the edge of the glove box. There are just plastic lugs holding it. Prise them carefully one at a time. I used a flat head screwdriver to release the first one. Then disconnect the lead which is at the back of the trim behind the hazard warning light button. Then use a socket wrench 10mm to unscrew the fixing bolt under the infotainment unit. The unit will then slide forward and you can disconnect the two leads shown in my video. This all takes less than 5 minutes. The trim may seem a bit stiff to start with but once you've eased off the first lug near the glove box the rest comes off fairly easily. I'm no mechanic but it is straightforward. I got a friend to hold the trim while I undid the connecting lead, but this was not essential. (I sat in the passenger seat to do this)

can you show how to get the infotainment out from the dashboard . i have a mazda 3 2.2 diesel 2014

Just followed your steps, this works on 2015 Mazda3s as well. Thank you

Wow, I figured there was some way to disable the stupid touchscreen. Thank you for showing us how!

Thaks!! Really woks i do it, you save me 1000 US, gracias y saludos desde Tijuana
