Modular Diagnostic System (M-MDS), using Mazda![]()
Diagnostic And Repair Software (MDARS) and claim the labor hours according to the warranty information shown
below.

the communication unit is unsubscribed or a Connected Service contract has been ended.
• After CMU update, “Wi-Fi Settings” is added to the Connectivity Settings but it is grayed out and not active.
• If current calibration file name in the ECU FILENAME screen is same as shown below or with later suffix,
reprogramming is not necessary.
