Before starting, ensure the vehicle is parked on even ground. Verify the tire pressure of each tire, ensuring it matches the correct psi which can be found on the tire's side. Next, enter the vehicle and power it on without starting the engine. Locate the button labeled tpms on the right side of the steering wheel, press and hold it until it starts blinking. Let the car sit for around 20 minutes to allow for recalibration. Once the blinking stops, turn off the car and then power it back on to confirm that the reset was successful.

    To reset the transmission on a Mazda, you should turn on the ignition without starting the engine, then press the gas pedal to the floor for 30 seconds. After releasing the pedal, start the vehicle. This will reset the transmission.

    Hey Wilhem, it seems like the problem might be with a shift solenoid, not the transmission itself. This is a known issue for specific model years of the Mazda 3. You can purchase the necessary solenoids and kit on Amazon for around $75.
