Not working on firmware 70.0.021 NA. You can hold DEL all you want but there’s never a test code. I’m curious if there’s another code in the newer software. I want to get the updated usb cables and connector for Apple CarPlay and not being able to touch is a show stopper. Heck not being able to move favorites around even at 10 mph stinks!
@@katherinecress9282 I complained about this to the sales who sold me 2017 CX5 because there's a good chance passenger will use GPS rather than the driver. But he told me "as he knew", the company take this as a safety feature that the driver will never have a chance to reach out to the screen when car is moving, mostly for law sue consideration I assume. So the older models, when maintained in the dealer's shop, will be patched to close such "backdoor". However, I am not able to verify this information since I no longer have that 2016. I think you may check your software version to see when it's updated.

@@2022908 I found an answer on Reddit: this only works if your system hasn't been changed. Once you get an upgrade like Apple Car Play, the system is locked and you're stuck.

Hello, it doesnt work in 2018 Mazda 6 with version 70+ I am holding del button for 20 seconds but nothing happens? Do you have any other trick because i would really like to use touchscreen while driving
Hey there! hope you're not still having this question/ issue, but if you are, the diag console works as a toggle for the button the guy in the video shows to press. Therefore if you want to toggle it off, all you need to do is go through the process presented in the video once more and that will toggle the option off, instead of on.
When i go to the test screen, I’m not able to press any buttons, when I’m in the main menu of the infotainment doesn’t matter if I’m parked or moving…touchscreen doesn’t work anymore. I upgraded the usb hub for carplay along with v70 software…along with a file to be able to tweak in the future, that’s how i was able to get all my abarth/fiat branding back, all works, i can still tweak with AIO, only problem is touchscreen. I reckon maybe the new usb hub doesn’t allow it
That is correct same thing happened to my car, the new firmware and the usb hub doesn’t allow for touchscreen while driving, I even lost the blue accents I had on the video it’s all red now.
I just discovered with my 2018 mazda3 if you press those 3 buttons and spin the toggle it will go thru a bunch of settings for the car. Can't tell which one is for touch screen
