2006-2007 RX-8 – MIL ILLUMINATED – P0126 SET – THERMOSTAT MONITOR
APPLICABLE MODEL(S)/VINS
2006-2007 RX-8 with VINs below JM1 FE**** ** 213200 (Produced before March 30, 2007)
On some vehicles, MIL will illuminate with P0126 stored in memory due to improper PCM calibration. There is no driveability problem.
- P0126 – Insufficient Coolant Temperature for Stable Operation
REPAIR PROCEDURE
- Using IDS or Mazda J2534 Software 47.8 or later software, reprogram the PCM to the latest calibration (refer to “Calibration Information” table) by following the “Module Reprogramming” procedure.
NOTE:
- Always update the IDS tool first, then follow on-screen instructions to download the needed calibration file for PCM reprogramming.
- It is not necessary to remove any fuses or relays during PCM reprogramming when the IDS screen prompts you to do so. You may accidentally stop power to one of the PCM terminals and cause the PCM to be blanked, or you may receive error messages during the IDS reprogramming procedure.
- IDS shows the calibration part numbers after programming the PCM.
- Please be aware that PCM calibration part numbers and file names listed in any Service Bulletin may change due to future releases of IDS software, and additional revisions made to those calibrations for service related concerns.
- When reprogramming a PCM, IDS will always display the “latest” calibration P/N available for that vehicle. If any calibration has been revised/updated to contain new information for a new service concern/issue, it will also contain all previously released calibrations.
- When performing this procedure, we recommend that a battery charger be installed on the vehicle battery and turned ON to a maximum charge of no more than 20 AMPS to keep the vehicle battery up to capacity. If you exceed 20 AMPS, it could damage the VCM.
- After performing the PCM reprogramming procedure, verify the repair by starting the engine and making sure there are no MIL illumination or abnormal warning lights present.
NOTE:
- If any DTCs should remain after performing DTC erase, diagnose the DTCs according to the appropriate Troubleshooting section of the Workshop Manual.
- After PCM reprogramming, it is no longer necessary to road test the vehicle to “relearn” KAM (Keep Alive Memory).
- Fill out an “Authorized Modifications” label (P/N 9999-95-AMDC-97) with the new PCM calibration information, your dealer code, and todays date.
- Place the “Authorized Modifications” label on the “A” pillar below the tear tag in the driver door jamb. The “Authorized Modification” label will inform technicians of the PCM calibration change if future repairs are necessary.

MDSFA/MMP Required Hardware (Not Included)
As shown in the diagram, an SAE J2534 pass-thru device is required to use the application.
Hardware validated by Mazda can be purchased separately from a third-party supplier. Validation has been done using the following J2534 pass-thru device and cables:
- CarDAQ+ (includes RS232 and Ethernet cables)
- Cable between CarDAQ and Vehicle – CD2534-J1962-FEPS (Sold separately / Required)
Important Information: Mazda makes no representations about the performance of third-party passthru devices. This pass-thru device list is provided voluntarily and as a courtesy. While our software meets SAE J2534, the pass-thru device manufacturer is responsible for making sure their pass-thru device operates properly on each Mazda vehicle and with Mazda software. We have listed the devices below because their manufacturers have attested that the tools have been validated to work. From time to time, we may test these devices. If we determine they do not operate properly or are obsolete, we may remove them from the list, without notice. Additionally, pass-thru devices listed here have been listed for their use with Mazda North American products only. While they may work with some European and other vehicles, they may not meet the requirements for those regions or operate properly.
Hardware can be purchased from a third-party supplier. Mazda has validated the following J2534 passthru devices:
| **J2534 Pass-thru Device | Manufacturer |
| *CarDAQ+ | Drew Technologies Inc. |
| *Pass-Thru+XS | Actia Corp. |
| *Snap-On Pass Thru Pro II | Snap-On. |
| *Universal Reprogrammer | EASE Diagnostics |
