Car Alarms: Mazda Key Security, mazda 626, security light


Question
I have a 1998 Mazda 626 with a factory installed security system.  I had an extra set of keys made at Walmart and when I tried to use the key the car started then the red security light started falshing and the engine shut off.  I tried to crank it again, it started the security light started flashing and the engine shut off.  Now it will not start and the security light flahses when I turn the key to the on position.  Now even the original key will not work.  What do I need to do?

Answer
Ok, It appears you've reset the transponder somehow.
The car's ignition reader does not seem to recognise
the chip in the ignition key any longer.

Unfortunately, you need to tow it to any
MAZDA vehicle dealer to have the service
department re code it.

Sorry, not all the news is good here.

But that's what your dilema sounds like

Good luck.
