WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mazda 6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION [SKYACTIV-G 2.5] .)
  2. Remove the front under cover No. 2. (See FRONT UNDER COVER NO. 2 REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
  3. Clean the transaxle exterior throughout with a steam cleaner or cleaning solvents.
  4. Drain the ATF. (See AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE FLUID (ATF) REPLACEMENT .)
  5. Remove the oil pan.
    CAUTION:
    • To avoid damaging the control valve body, if there is a large amount of foreign material at the bottom of the oil pan when the oil pan is removed, replace the oil strainer with a new one.
    • If there is not a large amount of foreign material at the bottom of the oil pan, the oil strainer does not have to be replaced.
    NOTE:
    • Always use new oil pan installation bolts when re-installing the oil pan because the oil pan installation bolts cannot be reused.
  6. Remove the oil strainer. (See CONTROL VALVE BODY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION On-Vehicle Removal .)
  7. Remove the oil strainer O-rings. (See CONTROL VALVE BODY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION On-Vehicle Removal .)
  8. Insert a precision flathead screwdriver and move it in the direction of the arrow to disconnect the oil pressure switch B connector as shown in the figure.
    CAUTION:
    • Do not scratch the oil pressure switch B and oil pressure switch connector B with the precision flathead screwdriver.
    • When disconnecting connectors, grasp the connectors, not the wiring harnesses. Otherwise, the wiring harnesses may be pulled out of the connector causing poor contact.
