I bought my 2014 Mazda in 2016 and I still drive it. It hasn’t dropped my Bluetooth that much over the years but because of this video, I (a young woman) am able to fix my myself every time. Thank you so much for this super helpful and explanatory video. It is truly appreciated.
Thanks brother! Yeah this is another issue with this model, along with the radio not turning off problem after the car is turned off. Mazda has it almost ready for a recall but won't do it! They rather charge us $600 to replace the shifter sensor which cost $50.00.
Thank you SO much. You saved me $880. The dealership told me the Bluetooth module has malfunctioned and they will need to replace the entire module. It literally took me couple of minutes to fix the problem. THank you thank you THANK YOU
Oh my Gosh! this was soooooo helpful. I have been driving around for 3weeks trying to figure this out. I went to two different Mazda dealers, neither of which knew how to fix this. THANKYOU!
Thanks for the very kind explanation, my car is a 2014 Mazda6. The bluetooth connection works great, the music works great, the radio works great. The problem is that when I talk on the phone, the person on the other end says they can't hear me very well. If this is the case, do I need to replace the microphone? And where is the microphone located?
Hey thanks so much for that. I appreciated the explanation about the positive terminal on the battery too because I’ve never touched the battery on my car before. Cut my finger in the price of removing the nut on the negative lead but that’s certainly not anything to do with your tutorial. Jumped back in the car and all of a sudden everything works again. Really great. Thank you. Lara
Thanks. I just removed the connection to my negative post on the battery. Reconnected the battery and it solved my problem. Mazda was going to charge me $200.00 for a diagnosis.
Great fix! I have a 2014 CX9 GT. The "infotainment" center with a screen smaller than many cell phones is among the worst out there (even for the time) Moreover, when it works it takes about Two minutes for the Bluetooth to load, synch, and start playing after ignition. It is overall a great vehicle. Because of this after many miles I'm going to swap it out. Even the most basic budget system would be better than what it came with.
Thanks for the video disconnecting the negative cable on the battery and using some advice from another video FINALLY solved the problem. YEAH!!! Disconnecting the battery was key!
My bluetooth suddenly stopped working on my 2016 Mazda 3 Sport GS. It was saying time limit exceeded and would not accept any connections, and could not be seen by any of my bluetooth devices. This fix immediately solved the problem and I was able to connect again. Thanks for the help.
Yeah so many online tutorials are like this, just so much rambling and dilly dallying. Get to the point man we're all here for one reason. Although my Mazda3 doesn't have a touch screen display like that, but I've got the same issue. Typical for all bluetooth really - you try to stop the car reconnecting automatically to the bluetooth (cause you want to use headphones ir something), and then you're never able to reconnect again. I even unpaired them but now they don't pick up at all. When I first paired them it was quick and easy so I don't think anything's broken. I wonder if this wilk work
Your fix worked brilliantly, however 10 days later, the problem has returned. Is there a more permanent fix? It is a pain to constantly reset all setting.
Do you know how to also fix the USB and Aux buttons from being greyed out and unavailable? I consistently have my iPhone plugged in the USB for charging and that works fine. Thank you.
Mines stopped working TWICE on my 2011 Ford Focus& my husband found out it was due to corrosion on the car battery. He cleaned it & it worked immediately!
@@Ben-bg2eg wont work, tried everything. Only thing you can do is to buy a used BT module or new. Here in europe they cost 250$ used. Wont give away that much, still got AUX
I have lost this on my Mazda 5 2,0 diesel 2010 I have disconnected the batteri, still not able to fix - when i push the phone-button on the stearingwheel 'mute' appeares on the screen, and the radio mutes... Can you hjelp please?
Do you happen to know how I could do a hard reset of the Bose system? The backup camera suddenly quit working (nothing on screen at all) and I cannot find a fuse. I was thinking maybe a hard reset could fix the issue. Thanks.
Hey what's up, I'm a new subscriber, I'm having a problem with my Mazda radio, it keeps restarting when I'm playing music on my phone over Bluetooth connection, can you help..?
I have sort of a similar problem but not exactly, in my car (mazda 6 2014) the bluetooth button on the screen stop showing. the same with the pandora button. I really dont know what to do
@@gabrielflores172 Disconnect all phones. Turn your phone off and restart after a min. Turn off car, wait then start up again. Connect Bluetooth as usual.
I also took it to the dealership and they updated it. I still have to make sure to close out necessary apps. I also disconnect my Bluetooth when I leave the car.
Good tips. An alternative is to unpair and to repair the Bluetooth Device(s). When I have had this problem, I've begun by disconnecting the battery, and when that didn't solve, to unpair and to repair. IDK if simply unpair and pair will solve without disconnecting. Retired auto tech so the battery disconnect is much quicker.
Yeah, 20 seconds. And if you're lucky it MIGHT last 24 hours. My buddy who is a elite Mazda master tech said it won't last but I did it anyway. He stated they have a big problem with these. It lasted 2 ignition cycles and was dead again. You need a new bluetooth module. This is a waste of time unless you like disconnecting the negative cable a lot and having to re-set everything.
Unfortunately it did not work for my iPhone 6 and 2017 CX5. It used to work. Then car battery failed. Good boost but now it keeps giving me a Failure to Connect (Cool Hand Luke?). Lol.
have a 2016 cx5 and it has constant issues with bluetooth. it either shows the song time elapsing but is silent, or it is perpetually 0:00 with no option to press play. it always does this. it can be every five minutes on and off, once here and there, or stuck broken for weeks. currently experiencing the latter. id say i have under 50% usage on my music. also worth noting its apple music which also has issues but in the car issues are different than lets say in the gym issues. i believe i have an issue with the cars bluetooth AND apple music freezes too.
Disconnecting the battery is very simple and won't ruin anything with your car. I live in minnesota with our cold winters it's not uncommon for us to have to disconnect our batteries to charge them when they die in the -30° Temps [or even bring them inside to warm them up] Very simple and safe to do.
Here is the issue that I'm having. Bluetooth works, but pairing my IPHONE 12 to my car doesn't. I spoke to Verizon to see if it was anything on their end. They said I need to unpair all devices on my Mazda, but Mazda has that feature greyed out. So then I tried to add a new device and Mazda doesn't recognize my IPHONE 12.. HELP
Same here. I had to keep hitting the home button.. go to settings tab.. devices tab.. then Bluetooth tab. If it doesn't work, disconnect your all phones and power down your phone. Wait a min or two and turn on. Go back into settings and connect again. Oh yeah, make sure car is is hit off, turned on and in park. Hope this helps.
I tried this method today because I was to scared to disconnect the battery, it worked, lets see if it lasts. 🤗👇🏼👇🏼 th-cam.com/video/F8PW9IHliSc/w-d-xo.html

Save time and just remove and then reinstall the two audio fuses under the hood. Better and safer than dealing with the battery.
Got a video or picture? Or it didn’t happen!!! Semper Fi!
Mishael Barrios it works. Go pay a mechanic to do it, if you’d rather. ;-)

Press and hold Volume, Back, and Nav buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds. This will reset your communication system.

Thank you so much lifesaver!!!!!! This has been annoying me for so long!!!
I enjoyed the video and was glad for the explantion. Glad to have this fixed. TY
It worked!!! I have to admit I had my doubts but it worked. Thanks sooo very much!!
No problem, glad it helped!
Ok, I deleted all devices and my husband disconnected the negative cable. I was able to re-pair my phone and it is working great.
How did you delete all the devices?
Not only fixing radio but everything regarding electronics will reset if you do that on negative battery
Thanks you so much! Exactly solved my Mazda 6 problem!
Couldn't you just pull the fuse for a few and then put it back in and have the same results?

Worked for me! 2014 Mazda 6. Thanks.
You’re amazing!! Worked perfectly
And I thought it'd be the fuses... Thank you!
Jake!! Thank you!! Your bloody legend!
More than great! Thank you very much🔥💯
if you disconnect the terminal what about the remote? it will still work?
Going to give this a go on my 2011 Mazda 6 cos it is driving me (no pun) mad!!

Disconnecting the battery resets too many things including fuel economy counter
how often does this happen? first time for us since 2016
have a 2016 cx5 and it has constant issues with bluetooth. it either shows the song time elapsing but is silent, or it is perpetually 0:00 with no option to press play. it always does this. it can be every five minutes on and off, once here and there, or stuck broken for weeks. currently experiencing the latter. id say i have under 50% usage on my music. also worth noting its apple music which also has issues but in the car issues are different than lets say in the gym issues. i believe i have an issue with the cars bluetooth AND apple music freezes too.
Okay, I'm sitting by the side of the highway trying to fix this problem. Would've been nice to know I needed to pop the hood before I pulled over!

How are you getting 391 miles? Full to the brim on mine I get like 350
bless u bro thanks
Worked.... sorta. I had to delete my phone from the system and then re-pair it... and then restart my phone. But thanks!
A 2008 Mazda cx9 doesn't have that setup on the screen. You have to go thru the phone button and set up
You don’t need to disconnect the battery, just pull out the fuses for audio and Bose for 3 seconds.

Why not just pull the radio fuse instead of messing with the battery?
