Ongoing pain and misery with my 2010 Mazda6 that is a full on potato thanks to be immobilized due to security codes.

I am going to attempt to clear codes with Forscan, but from what I hear it won't connect to the car without "force ignition" since the car doesn't have an ignition switch and it's basically blocking the key from starting. 
 

I have been told I need Mazda IDS software to force ignition but it's like $7,000 for a reader and the software. I have found this following on Amazon:

http://VXDIAG VCX Nano Compatible for Ford/Mazda 2 in 1 Diagnostic Tool with IDS Programming Tool Red https://a.co/d/2HJX4bG

Would this be what I need to scan and erase DTCs?
