Mazda Firmware Update guide for Mac and Windows 11 (2023) - Link included
Please watch the video / Read the read-me file thoroughly. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK I ACCEPT NO LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGES TO YOUR MAZDA INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM:
- Google Drive File (Updated April 2023, Older Firmware is also there): drive.google.com/drive/folders/10kAJdYxU2g_5UCi4AW-XrYgw-MfzeZLx
*NOTE you no longer need to update two different files for the newest firmware version, only the Reinstallation package (no longer need failsafe package).
- Install the flashed USB firmware to your car: ua-cam.com/video/dKS3WpcxIYo/v-deo.html
- Install Apple CarPlay / Android Auto Module (Parts numbers in read me on Google Drive): ua-cam.com/video/GYEaddWnbiQ/v-deo.html
I was able to successfully update the firmware on my Mazda CX-5 GS here in Canada to the latest version I am aware of as of April 2023 to 74.00.324A. The firmware must be updated before you can install the physical Apple CarPlay / Android Auto module.
Thank you and credit to 888 WERKES and The Ioniq Guy for helping make this video. I hope it was somewhat helpful! Feel free to comment and ask questions in the comments.

    I have an after market carplay which I installed with the FW 70. Do you think that I can install now a FW74 without compromising already connected carplay? Any suggestion is very welcome. Reason for the updated is the infortainment system restarts 2-3 times every time I start the car. This has been the care already before the carplay installation. The dealer suggested a FW update to see it that would fix it.
