Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) OFF Indication/Indicator Light (Some Models)

Type A

The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) OFF indication illuminates when the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) switch is pressed to turn off the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) systems.

If the indication remains displayed even though the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) switch has been operated, it indicates a problem in the system. Have your vehicle inspected at an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

Type B

This indicator light illuminates for a few seconds when the ignition is switched ON.

The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) OFF indicator light illuminates when the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) switch is pressed to turn off the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) systems.

A problem in the system may be indicated under the following conditions. Have your vehicle inspected at an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

  • The light does not turn on when the ignition is switched ON.

  • It remains illuminated even though the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) switch has been switched off.

  • It turns on while driving the vehicle.

 


If the vehicle is driven on a road with less traffic and few vehicles that the radar sensors can detect, the system may pause (The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) OFF indication/indicator light in the instrument cluster illuminates). However, it does not indicate a malfunction.
