Mazda i-stop reset - Tested and worked for me!
1. Battery voltage has to be a least than 12.7V
2. Untighten but do NOT unscrew the 12 mm nut holding the negative battery cable
- See picture below - it's a bit hard to describe
3. Disconnect negative battery terminal (with current sensor) for more than 5 minutes
4. Now unscrew the 12 mm nut holding the negative battery cable and disconnect it
- See picture below - it's a bit hard to describe
5. Reconnect negative battery terminal (with current sensor)
6. Reconnect negative battery cable to current sensor
7. With ignition on press and hold the i-stop off button until indicator flashes green
- If it flashes green, continue with next steps, if not repeat steps 2-6
8. Switch ignition off and shut bonnet
9. Restart the engine and run it until it is completely warm
- Trip counters will show 0 kilometers/miles because battery was disconnected
10. Turn steering wheel lock to lock
11. Switch ignition off
12. Now you only have 25 seconds to do the following
- Switch ignition on and within 5 seconds press and hold i-stop button I-stop indicator turns orange
- Start the engine
- Press and hold i-stop button for up to 10 seconds
- Now i-stop indicator should turn green – the 25 seconds limit is over
13. Switch ignition off – start the car and test result
I did it on my ND and i-Stop is now working after months of failing to work.
NOTE: If you use a battery minder, DO NOT connect it to the negative terminal, this may be the reason i-Stop got confused.
