Part: Warning light – error code

In this video tutorial we will see how to reset the particulate filter (FAP) warning light on the second generation Mazda 6. First of all we open the bonnet of our car and start by removing the plastic cover of the fuse box, which we find on the right of the battery; then we go to connect a copper cable inside the connector that we find at the top left, as shown in the video. At this point we are going to place the other end of the wire against the ground; then let's press the accelerator pedal ten times to reset.
