How to enable touch screen while driving Mazda infotainment
UPDATE: with Mazda's new Firmware updates this menu has been completely eliminated, the newest firmware update will allow you to run Google Auto and Apple CarPlay but you'll have to get a module and run wires from the module to the CMU. Everyone please check out this site mazdatweaks.com and download MZD-AIO-TI v2.8.4 preferably use a Windows computer, this tweaks also have one to enable touch screen while driving, but only for older versions the tweaks don't work on the latest firmware.
This will show all Mazda's infotainment years 2015, 2016 how to enable the touch screen while driving, without tweaks. Just entering in the CMU's test mode. This worked on OS version 55.00.753 NA it may also work on 55.00.760 NA I haven't tried on that one. Just when you get into the Test mode don't mess with the other toggles or you'll end up taking it to the dealer for them to fix it and it will cost you.

Didn't work on a 2019 Mazda CX-5 Sig. I can get to the test screen, but pressing DEL for a long time doesn't do anything.
Exactly what I was looking for without need to install additional scripts. Just took car for quick spin, and can confirm that it does work. Thanks
I have a 2022 Mazda cx-5 and my wife has the 2017. I can get to the test screen but it doesn't enter JCI Test Mode once I've held down the DEL button for 20 seconds... Nothing happens...? Maybe a later version of software... Is there a way to work around this?
This works for 2017 mazda 3s 4 door and 5 door if anyone is wondering. Thx 4 the vid! I had debris near the buttons and one day the home key got stuck. Gl everyone

When I try on my 17' I get to the test screen but after holding DEL for 20 sec it just unclicks the button and I never get to where I can put in 11. Also noticed his enter button is constantly lit up like he can click it where mine is greyed out and can't be selected.. is this the new update he's saying makes it not work? I thought he was talking about cars from 2019 on

@@katherinecress9282 I complained about this to the sales who sold me 2017 CX5 because there's a good chance passenger will use GPS rather than the driver. But he told me "as he knew", the company take this as a safety feature that the driver will never have a chance to reach out to the screen when car is moving, mostly for law sue consideration I assume. So the older models, when maintained in the dealer's shop, will be patched to close such "backdoor". However, I am not able to verify this information since I no longer have that 2016. I think you may check your software version to see when it's updated.

I want to get the updated usb cables and connector for Apple CarPlay and not being able to touch is a show stopper. Heck not being able to move favorites around even at 10 mph stinks!

Other car companies don't do this, but you do have a point about drivers being attentive. That said, it's as if they don't consider the possibility of PASSENGERS. There's no reason a passenger shouldn't be able to use the touch screen. Mazda is over the top with this. It's annoying enough that we won't be buying another next time around...esp since this hack doesn't work on the 2020 CX5.
It worked on my 2015 Mazda 3 GS with no issues. Thanks!
Works on my 2015 Mazda 3 2.0. Thanks!
I did this trick on software v33, then updated to latest a few days later for CarPlay. I can no longer access JCI test mode but the speed limiter setting carried over. Now I have CarPlay and touch while driving. I’ve never used any tweaks. Hopefully someone else can reproduce this.
