As a follow-up, the problem was a bad ground under the battery. Wiring to the lights.
 
Thanks

96' 626 Ignition Coil problem? by nykspree8

Hey guys, so for the past week or two my 626 has been up-shifting sporadically and on some of these up-shifts it will stall too, like it feels the car is going to die and then it gets a boost and keeps going (sorry if my explanation sucks i know nothing about cars!). So I took it my mechanic and he said it was the coil getting old, and it was quite corroded so he buffed it out and said that should fix the problem, but I'd need a new coil at some point in time in the future. On my way back home it did the up-shift thing again, but not as bad as it usually does (maybe i wasn't on the road long enough for it to get bad). I was thinking maybe it needs time to adjust now that its been cleaned out, or I dunno. So is this a coil problem? Old wiring ? Help please!!! lol

The code P0731 means incorrect 1st gear ratio, it is applicable to automatic transaxle only. To troubleshoot, check shift solenoids #1 and #2.

how to access trouble codes and question by john32626

I have a 95 626 2.0L, 5 speed
I'd like to know how to access the trouble codes stored in the computer.
is there a cable and software that I could plug the car into a laptop with?
 
ok now the question of the day...
193,000 miles, at idle the engine runs a bit rough, new NGK plugs installed and didn't help. think it may be ICS? has a vibration at 1500 rpm in neutral, oscillating somewhere.... harmonic balancer?
 
This is the first small car I've ever owned, I love it so far, but I really am not used to dealing with computer controlled cars. sometimes I wonder if I've got the rubber band wound too tight.. LOL
 
thanks for any help ya'll can give...

my car wouldn't go more than 20mph so the mechanic told me to change the piston rings after he did a compression check the number 3 piston wasn't working so i replaced the piston rings, had the head redone, replaced the headgasket, did a full tune up, but when i went to turn it on the car doesn't start. I believe 100% that it's the timing but i'm a bit rusty at it can someone help me please?

Tranny problem on 95 626 by guidry3

Does anyone make a after market cooler for the tranny. I think the main problem
with the trans of this era is they are too small for the weight of the car causing
them to overheat.

Mazda 626 LX 1999 Model - Screeching noise from belt by saeedabidi
Feb 17, 2008 (3:25 pm)

My car make screeching noise when it is cold and when you start the car in the morning. The noise comes from the belt. I used belt spray for a while, which makes the noise go away for a day but keep coming back the next day.
 
Is there a permanent and cheaper solution to resolving this noise from belt.
 
Thanks

Several aftermarket coolers will fit; you want a small one with sandwich-plate design (looks like a smallish radiator) that plumbs into the existing fluid lines and fits in front of the radiator.
 
Mazda at one time had a factory kit for these things, but it was pricey.
