Intermediate Sensor Removal/Installation [FS5A-El]

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Mazda 6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CAUTION:

If foreign materials are stuck to the sensor, disturbance by magnetic flux can cause sensor output to be abnormal and thereby negatively affect control. Make sure that foreign materials such as iron filings are not stuck to the sensor during installation.

Disconnect the negative battery cable.
Remove the battery and battery tray.
Remove in the order indicated in the table.
