hotassAMG Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Well, my Mazda 6 just died again. Yesterday I went out after work to go home and when I put the key in the ignition it wouldn't start so I tried again a couple of times and it started. This morning it started fine on the first try, but then once again this afternoon when I left work it wouldn't start for a while but then eventually did after a few tries. After being home for a bit I went out to leave and it wouldn't start at all and now sits dead. When I turn the key it doesn't make any noises at all (like it does when the battery dies and it makes a clicking sound). All the lights work (brightly) as does the radio. I wast hinking that it could possibly be the starter or have something to do with the ignition, but I don't really know that much about cars. Anyone have any suggestions? Does anyone know anyone who works on Mazdas for cheap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Could be a couple things. Possible dead spot in starter, loose wire, bad solenoid, I'd start by checking connections and voltage at the starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1647545494 Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 if you can see the starter from the top smack it with a small hammer or a wrench and see if the car will start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
