2013 Mazda CX-7

Key programming

You can add a new key to this Mazda yourself if you already have two keys that start the engine. The new key must be cut first, and it has to be a genuine key — a cloned hardware-store key won't work.

CR1616 battery on Amazon
2013
No battery

2007–2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 Mazda CX-7 key fob battery

Your 2007–2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 Mazda CX-7 key fob uses a CR1616 3V lithium coin cell. A fresh one typically lasts 3–5 years.

Buy Panasonic CR1616 Lithium Coin Batteries (4-pack) on Amazon

How to replace the battery

  1. 1 Slide the release latch and pull the metal emergency key out of the fob.
  2. 2 Use that key (or a coin) to pry the two halves apart at the seam.
  3. 3 Lift out the old coin cell — note which side faces up.
  4. 4 Drop in the new battery the same way (printed + side usually faces the back cover).
  5. 5 Press the case back together until it clicks, then test lock/unlock and push-to-start.

Battery tips

  • Use a fresh, name-brand 3V lithium cell — bargain cells drain quickly.
  • Even with a dead fob battery you can usually still start the car by holding the fob against the start button — check your owner's manual.
  • If the fob still won't work after a new battery, it may need re-syncing or programming.

2013 Mazda CX-7 key fob battery

A plain transponder (chip) key has no battery. The immobilizer chip inside is powered by the car's ignition ring whenever you turn the key, so there's nothing to replace. If your key also has lock/unlock buttons, that remote portion uses a 3V coin cell — see the remote battery steps for that.

Battery tips

  • If your engine won't start but the key turns, the issue is usually a worn key or the immobilizer reading the chip — not a battery.
  • A spare chip key must be cut and programmed to your car before it will start the engine.
