Expert Reply:

The best way to identify the wires on your 2022 Mazda CX-5 is going to be with a tester like the # PTW2993. Wiring colors are not universal, and I was unable to find a wiring diagram that might show this.

You could try to contact a local dealer to see if they have this information. If you don't want to use a tester, the only other way to do it is splice into wires until you find the right one which I would not recommend.

Also, it looks like you only have the # C56496. You will also need the Powered Converter Wiring Kit # 55151 to complete the installation.
