Broken Key - No Spare
-
To get the key out bud is easy, take the door card off get to the back of the lock and you should be able to just push the remainder of the key out of the lock with a pin or something thin from the inside out.
Then just take the 2 parts to a locksmith and he will be able to make you one for no extra cost.
The transponder key you can jusy take the plastic trim from around the ignition and sellotape it to the top of the lock and use a standard key from then on

I got the broken part out of the lock… From the outside as it broke without actually unlocking the car....
I have this guy coming at 10 so fingers crossed i'll have a key to get in and start the car soon after.... The transponder should still work if its on the same keyring as the new key....
I ordered 2 new key blanks online... so I'll get them cut and eventually get them both coded....

I need my key code :(
Auto locksmith tried cuting a key.. it didn't turn in the door barrel…. Tried calling local Mazda dealer... No answer!!!! :evil:
Running out of options..... :shock:

Get both parts of the key and take it to a shop tomorrow, believe me they will have a much better machine to cut it with than a mobile machine.
Mazda will charge a fortune but there are cutters out there that can find the key code using a machine and repair the key for you, I used to have one on ebay that would cut and do the code for £20 but he seems to have dissappeared but some shops can do that for you.
Also take the key the guy cut for you to the shop, they may find the problem too

A Transponder is a short name for a "Transmitter/Responder" There is a small box behind central console that "talks" to the chip in the key… if they don't "speak" the same code... the car will not start.

thanks for clearing that up foe me hammy. sorry im such a noob. i will try mechanics but when it comes to auto electrics i am baffled

Well, took it to local locksmiths…. he broke the key even more!!!
Going to Mazda on Wed to get this sorted hopefully by Friday!!!
-
Got a spare today!!! :D
My advice to all out there… Get the Key Code from Mazda!!! Will make geting any keys easier in future.... Code the code to any auto locksmith and they'll be able to cut a key for you....
BTW its £57 for a key (without coding) from Mazda.... It's £35 inc coding on average at any place that can code keys....

i best get one cut as i only got 1 key for my v6
