establish communication by entering the PCM part number, calibration number or tear
tag (= label on the PCM) number.

NOTE: The Mazda PCM part number has to be modified :

18-881 of Mazda part number will be replaced with 12A650,
e.g. “L813-18-881-D” is converted to “L813-12A650-D”

NOTE: When communication is established via the manual vehicle entry function, the option

“Module Programming” in the Toolbox menu is inoperable.
