Mazda CX-5 Service & Repair Manual: Rain Sensor Removal/Installation
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable..
2. Spread open the rain sensor cover in the direction of the arrows (1) and disengage tabs A to remove it.
3. Disconnect the rain sensor connector in the direction of the arrow (2).
4. Slide rain sensor tabs B in the direction of the arrow (3) shown in the figure, detach the engagement, and pull tab B in the direction of the arrow (4).
5. Remove the rain sensor in the direction of the arrow (5) shown in the figure.
6. Peel off the rain sensor protective sheet from the rain sensor.
7. Install in the reverse order of removal..
8. Perform headlight auto light setting..
CAUTION:
-
If the rain sensor is replaced, the auto light system may not operate normally because the auto light sensitivity setting is initialized. If the rain sensor is replaced, perform the auto light sensitivity setting.
-
If the auto light sensitivity setting before replacing the rain sensor was "Medium", and the following sensitivity setting procedure is not performed, the sensor will be unable to detect the illumination level correctly and the auto light system will not operate normally. If the rain sensor is replaced, perform the following sensitivity setting procedure.
-
Except for "Medium" sensitivity setting.
-
Re-setting to "Medium".
Rain Sensor Installation Note
CAUTION:
-
If the rate at which the rain sensor reflects or transmits infrared light between the rain sensor and the windshield, or through the protective sheet is changed, the rain sensor will determine that there is a malfunction in the rain detection function and stop auto wiper system control. Be careful of the following when installing the rain sensor:
-
Do not reuse the rain sensor protective sheet
-
Do not touch the rain sensor lens, rain sensor protective sheet, and sensor installation area on windshield with your fingers
-
Verify that there is no air bubble after installing the rain sensor
1. Wipe off any oil or dirt from the rain sensor lens and the windshield using a clean rag.
2. Peel off backing of double-sided adhesive tape A from the rain sensor protective sheet.
3. Adhere the rain sensor protective sheet to the rain sensor lens.
4. Peel off backing of double-sided adhesive tape B from the rain sensor protective sheet.
5. Install the rain sensor in the direction of the arrow (1).
6. Press the rain sensor in the direction (direction of arrow (2)) of the windshield and press out any air bubbles.
7. Verify that there is no air bubble between the rain sensor and the windshield.

DSC Control
Outline
While a vehicle normally turns safely in response to steering operation,
there are instances when the limits of tire lateral grip is surpassed due to
road surface conditions or vehicle speed, and the influence of evasive steering
to avoid an accident or similar situations.

Intake Air Temperature (Iat) Sensor
IAT Sensor No.1
Purpose/Function
Detects the IAT before it passes through the throttle body as basic information
for mainly determining the fuel injection amount.
Detects the IAT before it passes through the throttle body and inputs it
to the PCM as an IAT signal.
Constru ...
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) automatically controls braking and engine
torque in conjunction with systems such as ABS and TCS to help control side slip
when driving on slippery surfaces, or during sudden or evasive maneuvering, enhancing
vehicle safety.
Refer to ABS and TCS .
