Crutchfield should send you instructions on the steps to remove the factory radio.
I just got a 2011 Mazda CX 9. On the 27th of January the temperature got up to 70 degrees and the inside of the car was a little warm so I turned on the AC and it did not blow cold air.
As a result of the AC being checked it was determined that the after-market entertainment package (Pioneer AVIC-X910BT with Satellite, Radio, blue tooth, Navigation, DVD player and a rear view camera) installed cause an electrical shortage to the AC. When I talked the service department on Friday 2/11/2011 they had the AC working again. I was also told that they may not be able to get an after market system installed in the car because of the way the AC is connected to harness of factory installed radio. Do anyone have a after market Navigation system in there 2011 CX9 touring?

Yes, I installed the Pioneer AVIC-F920BT into my CX 9 modelyear 11.
I have similar problems. The blower in the front is working only after about 40 minutes driving time. I wasn't at the service but after your mail I'm a bit confused. I do not understand where is the context between the navigation unit and the blower !!
What about your blower, does he work If you start the car ?
Have you the problem only with the AC or generally ?

I have the same problem with my CX-9 after I install a Kenwood DNX9960, the AC stop working, but if I reconnect the OEM radio in the 70-7903T connector, without unplugging the Kenwood, the A/C start working again. The problem is that disconnecting the OEM the A/C stops working again. My deduction is that the A/C uses the CANBUS of the radio.
Anybody have tried the CTSMZ011 from www.connects2.com? Maybe this connector resolve this problem, since it also sends information to the canbus to control the clock and trip computer.

Is this just isolated to the 2011 models? I have an 07 and was debating on replacing the OEM unit.
Just a friendly word of advice.... For those of you considering buying a Pioneer AVIC series aftermarket nav unit, I would suggest googling "Pioneer AVIC Stuck" and read about all the problems they have sliding down, where the sliding mechanism breaks on this 1300 dollar unit. I have seem a few of these have these problems (in my line of work).
