Is my Connected Services
reception affected by weather
conditions or geographic
features such as tunnels or
steep valleys?

Yes, inclement weather, remote locations, enclosed areas, or
underground parking garages can affect your service. Use the radio wave
reception level indications of the communication unit to determine if
your Connected Services reception is being affected. For details on the
system’s limitations, refer to the Terms and Conditions .

Can I use Connected Services
as normal during an app
update?

It may not be possible to use certain Connected Services functions
during a MyMazda online update.

Troubleshooting

Problem

Solution
1. Check customer phone and vehicle reception strength. Retry when
reception strength is good or strong.
Go to Reception Level Inspection

Vehicle center display does
not provide One Time Pass
Code during the MyMazda
App connected services
enrollment.

2. Connected Services Enrollment step 1/3 "Turn
Ignition ON", wait 30 seconds before you select
"Next" on the phone App.
This allows the communication unit time to
connect.
NOTE: Vehicles stored for long periods may loose GPS
clock sychronization. If the vehicle is stored for a long
period, test drive the vehicle to give the GPS clock time
to sychronize before enrolling.

Dealer Processes

Is there an
opportunity at
PDI to test the
system?

No special action is required to activate at PDI other than the room fuse installation,
which is already part of the current PDI. We recommend checking for signal after
installing room fuse. See the image below for how the connectivity signal bar looks
(it's the vertical stack bar on the right bottom corner). This connectivity signal bar is
not displayed on the "Home" screen, so the PDI Inspector would have to go into the
"Entertainment" or "Navigation" menu to check it. To confirm it is working properly,
the bar should be white like the image below.
