#2250 of 2476 Brake Lights not working by mike1235 Jan 03, 2007 (5:00 pm)
I have a 98 Mazda 626 and the brake lights quit working. I have checked the fuse under the dash and it is still good. I think it is highly unlikely that all three brake lights burned out at the same time, but that is what I plan to check next. Anyone have any suggestions? Is there something else I should be looking at?   Thanks,   Mike Replies to this message: urb0123 (Feb 12, 2007 3:10 pm)
#2251 of 2476 Torque converter issues on 2000 626 LX V6 by nik8 Jan 06, 2007 (5:12 pm)
My 2000 626(79k miles) shudders quite violently at around 40-45mph. Typically I lift my foot off the gas pedal and sometimes do this a couple of times to get past the shudder. Pepboys told me today(90 bucks for telling me this) that the torque converter is shattering and recommended that I take it to a tranny shop. Anybody on this board have any advice/experience on what kind of bill I'm looking at? I'm in the Dallas area so if anybody can recommend any local shop here I'd appreciate it.   Any other advice/comments would be highly appreciated. Thanks.
#2252 of 2476 Re: timing belt concern... [skibry1] by p100 Jan 06, 2007 (6:20 pm)
Replying to: skibry1 (Dec 28, 2006 3:51 pm) 105,000 miles for the first timing belt change. the belt still looked good. I replaced it with a Mazda OEM belt. I bought a timing belt kit from Auto zone that included the idler pulleys, because those were prohibitively expensive from Mazda. Did not use the timing belt in the kit though.

Replying to: e44 (Jan 01, 2007 11:20 am) You could have an internally leaking clutch master cylinder, which causes the clutch not to release fully when the clutch pedal is pressed. Replies to this message: e44 (Jan 13, 2007 9:48 am)

Replying to: p100 (Jan 06, 2007 6:24 pm) Thanks so much for the tip, and I will have it verified by my mechanic at next service. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you, p100, for your excellent and detailed advice on all matters 626 . Noteworthy is message #2237 concerning the requiremmet of a special tool for the harmonic balancer removal when changing the timing belt. It is so important to get your vehicle serviced by a good mechanic, and the best way to find one is by personal referral from someone who knows about cars.
#2255 of 2476 Belt Broke Last Night, 2002 626, 4 Cyl, by blowmeuptom Jan 17, 2007 (8:17 am)
I don't know anything about my girlfriends 626, other then I have made every attempt possible to not work on it, but it's sitting on a major road, last night a belt broke, I was told it had s serpentine belt, but It doesn't appear like that's correct, seeing there is still a belt that is not broke, this appears to be the belt that runs the Alternator maybe? I have to fix this myself, and can't even figure out what belt's this car runs, when the belt broke, the battery light came on, and the tempeture shot up and floored out, can anybody throw me a crumb??? Please, I've gotta get this car running, and am not having any luck getting started, why is this car so hard to find out information about? thank you, please help!!!
#2257 of 2476 1996 626 2.0 idle problems by firefighterfox Jan 26, 2007 (5:42 pm)
car runs great except, it idles about 2400 rpm on cold start up and will eventually slow down to around 700 rpm after 4 to 5 minutes. It also takes about 2 to 3 times longer than normal for the engine to idle down after being reved up. ( cold or hot doesn't matter? ) If I unplug the idle control valve, both of these problems go away, but then the engine won't idle without dieing. No codes in memory. thanks in advance, firefighterfox
