If you hold the stick in park manually, you dont have to do it hard, then turn it off it will turn off completely. My wife figured it out after a while. Give it a try it is not too frustrating having to do it after a while.
This is my car! 120k. Excellent car. Only recently started having issues. This has been one that’s plagued me for a couple years now. But it’s become more consistent as of this year. I’m glad I found this video. Thank you.
I know it's an old video but I think I found an easier way to fix this rather than gluing something back onto it. When you take the switch out just rip the rubber tip off which leaves a hole. Through the hole put a small cable tie making sure the cable tie knob is where the groove was. Then wrap another cable tie around the base to keep the knob facing out. No need to glue anything on.
I bought one of these parts from Amazon and swapped it out and it worked good for a week and now works sometimes but not all the time. ... I may have to go to Mazda.
I had mine replaced by the dealership, maybe 6 months later it was doing it occasionally, then 2 years later it is back to being completely unreliable.
I’m a 58 year old female with NO automotive repair experience. I’m pretty good at fixing things though. I am happy to report I did this!!! I ordered the OEM part for $50 from Amazon. My dealer wanted to charge $165 just to analyze !!! It took me about two hours-the only tough part was getting that lower screw out but I did it! It so nice and easy to park now. Thank You!!!!!!! 2014 Mazda CX5 Grand Touring
Thank you! Successfully did this repair on my 2014 CX-5 with part from Amazon. Felt like open-car surgery with all the little plastic clips to undo. I found it easier to get at the part by going to the back seat & unscrewing the 2 bottom screws to then shift the center console back. There are other videos that do it this way. Very challenging to get the electrical part in last step unhinged. I had to borrow needle nose pliers to pry them apart.
Thanks buddy. I just changed the part today and sure as heck that rubbery thing at the tip was worn out. Caution to other folks. The white thing with the spring, be very careful because it has 2 tabs and you can only see one. Be super gentle and put a towel in all open console area. My spring flew out and fortunately fell outside the console area. Phew.
Thank you! I've got a 2014 CX-5 with the same issue since I had noticed it... I checked *and can confirm it is compatible with the 2014 model, the part shown in the video* . Also, for "fun"; It's a $423.49 for/from the Dealership to do the work. The part (from their service dept.) is $118; and of course - aftermarket ones are half that on average with some of the highest being around $70's. In other words, buy the part & do it yourself or have a savvy friend/family member do it. You *will* save hundreds of dollars and it's not an exaggeration, I called & went through the process to see (for myself) just how far the Dealership(s) are willing to go, to inflate the price... Enough to give some high blood pressure - I have no doubts lol.
I removed this part, reinstalled everything (I just put a bit of plastic over the worn black rubber bit) but now my car has no left or right indicators and I can't use high-beam whilst driving and the lights always stay on (even when I turn the switch off on the steering column stick). WTF! Any idea why this is? When my car is off I can still high beam. My hazards still work when car is off...
Just replaced mine with the Mazda part. Car failed to turn off about 15% of the time so we'll see if this totally eliminates the problem. Instructions were very good.
Thats what RUclips is for, life saver. However I’ve attempted to fix the wearing part by using duct tape to beef up the rubber tip that wears out. So far it’s working but fingers crossed it holds out. At least I know the faulty part and how to get to it now. That little white plastic piece holding the spring is a pain to get back on, partly because I didn’t remove all the console covers, just bent it to the side. I nearly dropped the spring down into the abyss.
Thanks a lot for the video. Very detailed. If it wasn't for people like you, I don't know what would become of us. Don't leave that heart. keep making dictatorial videos and helping people. I live in Mozambique, maybe you don't know where that country is. But you got here. thank you very much Claudio D"Gabrio
Yahoo I just did it in under an hour. The hardest part was separating the electrical from the switch. I just use a plier thank you so much for your knowledge
after watching your video I performed the new part swap in about 40 minutes without any issues. Thanks very much, it really helped me get through the job, and restore everything perfectly.
I first watched your video in Australia about 6 months ago. I have had this issue for a year or two. You video was amazing! I located the same part for Aussie cars and ordered from a Japan seller (steering wheel on opposite side in Australia, so part number is slightly different - KDY1-46-040). I think the part was about 40 USD including shipping and it was a genuine Mazda part. Finally after sitting on the part for over 6 months I decided to have a go. I re-watched your video and completed the fix in about an hour. Works perfectly now!!! Between the part and labor here in Australia I saved about 500 USD I'd say. I am not a car guy and have NEVER tried to fix anything on it but you made it look so easy, thanks again! My only call out in relation to the video is I was not able to wedge my screwdriver in between the console panels to get to the two screws. So I ended up taking the console off from the screws behind the front seats and this made it extremely easy. You don't need to take the whole middle console off, just undo the screws and it slides back easily enough to get the work done. I also found getting the part itself disconnected from the wiring was quite difficult and I was super worried to break it. People should be sure to find where the clip is and somehow wedge it free. In spite of some of these little issues your video got me though all of it, it was great. Thanks again for saving me about 500 USD and making me the hero of the house:)
I had the same problem ... took it to the dealer's and they replaced it ( $175.00 + labor ) and less than 2 months later same problem again. When I called the dealer he said must be a cable ?? Not sure if this is actually the problem I inquired to what replacement would cost he stated around $600.00. Right now when not shutting off as it should I shift tranny into reverse and then in part ...it works for how long not sure.
I would say if you are willing to, you can buy another switch unit on Amazon and try to change it yourself and see if that cures the problem. If it doesn't, Amazon has a generous return policy. They almost accept anything back used or not to be honest. But if that fixed your issue, you should go back to the dealer and bring the switch the dealer installed and ask for compensation. Work done at the dealer should be warranted for some time period, 90 days or for a year or whatever.
This great thanks but I lost that little spring clips it fell out. didn't seem to matter. does anyone know what it does? there is a plastic button on top of the gear indicator which it seems to go to which also doesn't seem to do anything unless its a design issue which is irrelevant to this model cx5 (2012)
AWESOME VIDEO- Your seriously saved us! Your details and video were so helpful. It is a bit but we got it and works like a charm. I'm a teacher and you my friend could or should be a teacher. Your Rock! Thank you so much!
Thanks for this, saved me a fortune. Just glued a bit of plastic to the switch part that was worn. Works like new couldnt have dine the job without you vid
Thank you! This saved me a lot of money, time and grief. It gave me a great understanding of what pieces needed to be removed, and how. I initially threw a new Optima at it, thinking the issue with not being able to turn it fully off was due to the battery being on the way out. But when the new battery was completely dead a little while later (5.7V), and the jump start setting on our battery charger would get accessories working but not start the car, I dove into the internet and started researching. The switch replacement was fairly painless -- it was more difficult pulling out the dead Optima, getting it replaced by the auto parts store and cleaning all the acid residue from the battery area. It would have been $$ to have the car towed to Mazda for diagnoses and repair.
I have a Mazda 6 Atenza Wagon, mine also had to replace this part, but the person who paid was the store where I bought the car, it was under warranty.
Nice job! Thank you. A little too delicate for my Frankenstein hands but was able to show my local mechanic who is very trustworthy in terms of $$. I was very much hoping to avoid the dealership where all they care about is revenue generation.
It took me a bit, maybe an hour, and I had interruptions, but way cheaper than the $250+ that the dealership offered. They even wanted me to change the whole gear shifter unit. When i took the part out, it looked like it wouldn't work because the plunger thing was shorter, on both sides. Looks like its working fine today. Part cost around $30 online.
Thank you!! My 2014 CX5 just started having this issue & your temporary fix worked perfectly. I will also use your method to permanently fix it! You’re a lifesaver!!
Recently replaced mine due to this problem. Whilst changing over I noticed that the spring (see at 14.06 in video) did not appear to be positioned properly - one arm of the spring was out of position and visible. I repositioned the spring arm back underneath - I gave it a slight bend to make sure it stayed in position. I feel that the spring might have been the problem, however I now have the new switch installed also.
Great Video and used an OEM Mazda New Shifter Switch for the repair but still was not reliable and Mechanic said we need to change the shifter as it is worn also have 200,000 Kms on 2013 Mazda CX5!!
Hi! My gear shifter on my Cx5 is getting stuck. It’s really hard to move and is pulling on the plastic cover to even move around. Do you have any suggestions?? Thank you!!
@@BruceAvery-j3u I bought an other new shifter for 40€. Now it works... but sometimes (not often) specially when the weather is hot, the screen continues to stay on. So i take of the fuse nr 38 and insert it again, and the screen shuts off.... is funny but, know this is the only way for me now. For whom needs a temporary fix, to not drain the battery just take of the fuse 38.
@@albisouldragon Hi there you can also try moving the shifter sideways when off then while cycling the ignition. Another way is moving the car slightly when running to get the switch unjammed LOL Mazda!!
It should fit all first generation cx5 which was from years 2013-2014, including those manufactured in 2012. If you purchase from Amazon, they generally will accept returns if your switch looks completely different than the 2013-2014 switch.

Hi my dad's got a 2008 mazda 6 estate a manual one,his instrument and lights won't turn off ots all bleeping n buzzing,but ot won't turn off even when you've took the key out,please help any advice is greatly appreciated,he's just bought the car 2 weeks ago,also we've noticed his headliner inside the car is wet,it must be leaking somewhere on the roof,
The reason there's two parts coming up for your vehicle is because there is a Japan built version and a Mexico built version and some of their parts are slightly different
I have this problem on my CX5 Auto...I've looked at the part but it looks like for US left hand drive.? Are they compatible in the UK right hand drive ?
Anyone know if the part would be reversed for a right hand drive? I'm in Australia so I'm scared to buy the part and find out I need a different facing part
Love this car but the infotainment system is the worst of any car I’ve ever driven. Period. Almost makes the car unusable in the summer. I’ve almost punched the screen out so many times 😂
I fixed it by using following: 1. Electric tape 2. Super glue I cut the electric tape in real slim strip. Then folded it a few times to put this in the spot that has the cut. Then I super glued it and placed electric tape over it and super glued it too. Let's see how long it holds. RUclips wont let me post image links. Hopefully this helps someone.
@@Sophia-lc9ow actually I had the new part from Amazon on hand with me. But with the above method, I fixed the existing part and returned the new part.
