I did a quick video demo on the end result.

It is doable, you just have to take your time! I did a google search first before I play around with the programming or wires again and it shows some solutions. Gave that a try and bingo. Problem solved!

So fortunately, it came with adequate instruction for me to do an install. I would like to do a quick write up on the process still to give you guys an idea on the process and what I've learned. I installed this on my 2017 CX5 but the process will probably be similar with whatever...

Hi, I am wondering if anyone have install one on on their 2017+ model year that would like to shine some light on the process? I bought one through Ebay after doing my research but the information is almost non existence...

This https://mazdashop.ca/collections/2017-2018-mazda-cx-5-accessories/products/trailer-hitch-harness-mazda-cx-5-2017-2018 I stitch together some video of the process here if you're interested. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aLBMQMDI7M&t=1s

Installed a hitch electronic recently. It boggle my mind on what was the cause but I think I got a faulty unit at first.

Did it required any drilling? I was thinking about adding one of these when I take it off road.

Wells its done. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWcmz9kvPGA I uploaded it last night and spent my Canada Day long weekend working on it. I fell bad about leaving this off for so long. I had a new job and got sick along the way. My voice is still gone. This has been on my mind for some times...

Thanks for the suggestion but I already tap violet. I can not think of a time where I would need the sill powered on when I won't be able to see it. Got it all wired up. I bought blue/red wire. I connected them in reverse (red on red) and had a hell of a time trying to figure out what I did...

Installed the OEM hitch electronic. Tips, there's a black cap the you can use to run down your 4 pin power wire to the underside. Also vacuum the trunk while I was at it.

Not sure how you're able to get the diagram but right now I have a big man crush on you. I tried the red2bue and black2brown but there is a constant draw of about 11.25V. I was playing around and took a gamble on purple instead of brown. I see it flickering and no smokes. It's a good sign. It...

Touring, or called the GS model here in Canada. Did it mention what was the purpose of that piece?

To annoyed people who try to install a hitch? (boom02) That plastic attachment sit between the exhaust and rear bumper. It look like a filler or for better arrow dynamic or prevent dirt and grim from building up on the inside of the bumper?? I have no idea to be honest.

You're right. My thinking was if I forgot to close the door securely it will time out and power down after a couple of minute instead of draining the battery dead. But at this point I just want it working. I've tested the led with an external power supply. Everything is good. I will be just...

I plan on doing a Youtube install video when or if I manage to install it properly. I want the video to be as simple and non invasive installation as possible. My car is a mess right now. With some more input and help from the community, I know the video will be done faster.

Installed a Draw-Tite (76138) hitch on my 2017 today. Thinking it would be easy to do but my Canadian CX-5 had a extra plastic flap attached to the rear bumper. Wish it was mention somewhere. Tips for other Canadian trying to attempt it.

Where can I find one for the new redesign 2017+ model?

Great tip. Never thought that. Thanks for sharing!

https://imgur.com/yslMPkZ https://imgur.com/qUNMumi I manage to pop the map light open. These wire are the one I am looking for now at the foot fuse box area with no success. Even if I found it, I wouldn't know which color wire to tap in to. It would be nice to get it dimming naturally like...

I appreciate the help. So thanks for taking the time to translate for me! I guess I am out of luck trying to use that plug as I have the Canadian CX-5. I've read that another owner from 2010 had success tapping in their map light. I tried opening it before but felt like something was about to...
