Do you still have the clanging problem in 4 hi? I have the same truck but it's an automatic and on 2 occasions have had a similar problem. Both times it was in cold weather. I noticed that your post was in February. I'm wondering whether some part of the linkage, maybe part of the remote free wheel system is icing up and preventing the mechanism from fully engaging.

#761 of 768 ECU question (1992 Mazda B2200 Sport fuel injected) by ronart

ECU question (1992 Mazda B2200 Sport fuel injected)
 
Though I have read on a few forums that people have replaced their ECU... I have not read that anyone suggests performing specific tests BEFORE installing the ECU.
 
The reason I am concerned is that I received back an ECU that stated that the solenoids/relays must have a resistance value of no less than 20 ohms or it could damage the ECU.
 
I called Mazda about this and they seemed clueless, but... they said that they do perform tests on the connector to see if there are any shorts, etc. prior to installing the ECU (so I assume this is probably what it is).
 
Mazda also said that they MUST reprogram the ECU after it is reinstalled for it to function properly.
 
No where have I read that this is necessary.
 
Mazda said that they charge $99 to 'reprogram' the ECU and if they have to diagnose it after that it would be an additional $99.
 
Does this seem correct or are they doing things that are unnecessary?
 
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
Regards,
 
Ron

Guys I gotta major amount of confusion and need some assistance. For awhile there the check engine light was coming on and I forget what I did if anything to get it to stop. Now the check oil light comes on sometimes and it is full of oil and I change it every 3000 miles. I have the 4.0 engine and 5 speed tranny. Any suggestions? Thanks.

#766 of 768 B300 - Sequences of dings???....What does this mean? by nbunte43

Dec 06, 2011 (11:22 am)

As soon as I start my truck and engage it into drive or reverse the truck begins to do a sequence of dings. It makes 5 dings then after about 5 seconds it begins another set of 5 dings. It does this sequence for five sets of five dings. Then after 30 minutes of driving it does this same sequence again. The truck does not show any check engine lights or anythign like that. This is quite annoying! Any help would be much appreciated. THANKS!!
