Replying to: 95mazda1 (Mar 07, 2007 7:18 pm) I just recovered from this problem today. Your problem is your alternator. It has been damaged, and needs to be replaced. It's not putting out enough juice to power all your appliances in the car, so cuts corners on important electronics like headlights, and speedometer, and the airbag light will flash. Be very careful, as a flashing airbag light means there is not enough power to deploy them in case of a crash. Replace your alternator, by removing your catalytic converter, if you have AC. If not, undo your cruise control, and the other module below it, and pull your alternator out the top. There is no other way. Also, make sure your battery is good, and your connection post and clamps are free of corrosion and rust. Hope this helps.   PS: Your radio died first because it takes the most power, besides the engine and headlights. Replies to this message: giacomod (Apr 17, 2009 3:55 pm)

Replying to: zoom60 (Jun 04, 2008 1:56 pm) There is nothing wrong with your car that I know of. It's running high at first to heat up, so it doesn't die. The engine is designed to idle at 900rpm, so if it drops to that after a few when cold, everything is normal.
