Hi, I think I blown a fuse. I tried to push in a bulb that was too big and it shorted out. Now my steering wheel and gear shift lights don't work. Do you know what fuse protects those circuits?
not sure which fuse controls that...you will have to pull them out one at a time and see which one is blown if the naming doesn't make it clear. i'm sick in bed for the last few days, otherwise I'd go out and find which fuse that was.
turn the dimmer knob clockwise till you hear the beep to turn the auto dimmer off turn it counter clockwise till you hear the beep to turn the auto dimmer back on. th-cam.com/video/Qvs7SnASb4Y/w-d-xo.html
i think in general, its the same process...remove cup holder area, then shifter area and you are there...take a look here (its for a navigation change, but the initial steps apply): www.carstereowiki.com/how-to-install-2009-2010-2011-mazda-6-aftermarket-gps-navigation-system/
i feel like most cars are now like that...so many things go wrong quickly because no one builds them like they use to...kinda still need to stick with toyota and honda :)
Yup my 2011 3 love it to the core everything about it’ totaled it by a. Deer had to get a 16’ that was year at the time so much cost cutting the door lock button doesn’t even light up no fuse protection for light bulbs will fry your rbcm so unhook batt seats suck they r going down down down

How do you reassemble the console? for me, it would not fit properly at the gear side.

Did you find the solution. Same happened to me.
May you please assist. My interior lights including the dash become too dim the moment I switch on the headlights. What could be the problem

I bought my car used and was always confused as to why there was no light, but I guess the light went out!
It sure did
Thanks foot print, but I had no luck. I see a white wire on left side of shifter housing, but there is no way to pull it out
How much was the bulb? Thank you.
I don't recall...it was $2?
is there a fuse in this section?
nope, no fuse
Yes there is one. No. 20, 7.5A "AT INT"
Where did u buy your bulb i really need i too

I believe this bulb mechanical size is not T5 but rather T1-3/4 (aka T1.75) size.
I have a 2009 and mine recenty burned out. Any idea how I access the bulb? It's not the same

I changed bulb and found out bad connection wire.
This should not of been that complicated. Literally a2 minute job. Don't need a screw driver just pull straight up
Yes agree. These are serviceable parts and they shouldn't be made to be this difficult to replace. LoL.
Thanks for the tip.
never buy a mazda . They’ve turned to shit
