I was wondering if anybody knows of some sort of bypass that would allow me to use my keyless entry while my car is running. It works fine with the key in the aux. position or with it completely off. If anyone could help me I would really appreciate it. Thanks!
Keyless Entry Bypass

to answer your question, thisshould be pretty easy. go here: http://protege5.ugly.net/09-14.PDF check out page 11. Input A on the module is at B+ (12V) when ignition is on, and below 1.0 (Ground) when in ACC of off position. So, you simply need to tie this input to ground and you will always be able to use the remote. How to:
1) Locate wire A on the keyless entry module
2) Cut this wire 4" from the module to create a 4" pigtail coming out of the module.
3) Tie the ignition side of the cut wire up, so that it will not short things.
4) Tie the pigtail side to ground.
5) Enjoy your new feature!
p.s- that is one BIG truck!!

In looking closer.. I would ALMOST say that you could just pull the fuse. However, this would be floating, and not really ground. Since this is a microcomputer, it needs to see an actual ground- floating ground may not trigger properly. Secondly- that fuse may be controlling other things as well.
just an FYI

Thanks a lot man, that was a great help and thats all I needed to do. Worked fine and Yes that is a big truck, 9" lift sittin' on 38" tires. Now with my car lowered, I can get all the way up to the bottom of my winshield under neath it. Thanks again.wildo said:

How To- Keyless Entry Always Enabled
Here is a how to to always enable your keyless entry system. For some reason, Mazda designed it to disable when the car is on. Here is how to override that:
NOTE: I am not responsible for you blowing up or burning down your car. Complete mod at your own risk.
--------------------------------------------
1) You will first need to locate your keyless entry module.
You will easily be able to find this bracket with the three modules on it. The door lock module is yellow.
The Keyless entry module is attached to this bracket. (The module is on the fender side of the bracket- as opposed to the center console side)
2) You then need to pull the harness out of the module by pressing the clip and pulling down.
3) Check this picture for reference:
You will want to cut wire A (which is blue with a white stripe) about four inches from the harness. Then, you will strip a small amount of insulation off of wire L (which is black) and spice the 4" pigtail into this.
-So, you are splicing the pigtail of wire A coming out of the harness connector into wire L. DO NOT CUT WIRE L.
4) Tap up the cut end of wire A with electrical tape so that it will not short out against something, and tape up and out of the way.

nice write up. I used to be able to do this on my last car, and I miss being able to leave my car running in my apartment parking lot to warm up while I run back to my apartment to grab something I forgot...
Thanks!
Thanks!
