2004-2009 Mazda 3: Repair of sunroof so it will close/open

Wed, 14 Jan 2026 11:36:22 -0700

My sunroof is stuck in the 85% close position. Pushing either the open/close switch you just hear a 'rattat-tat' sound and the sunroof remains in the same position for most of the time. Some times it does move half an inch either way but that's all. I need to get under the headliner and be able to see if there are any small bolts loose/missing and what the track assembly looks like. Can you help and by chance also provide me with an excerpt from the factory service manual?

Sure. I thought I included it. It's a 2006 Mazda 3 and is a 4dr. Can you also find info for removing a portion of the overhead headliner in order to be able to work on the sunroof motor and track assembly?

Thank you.

2004-2009 Mazda 3: Why does my engine fan randomly stay on after the car is off?

Thu, 01 May 2025 01:29:44 -0700

Anytime I go to turn on the AC after I stop driving to my destination the engine fan stays on and continues running until I have to disconnect the negative charge on my battery under the hood. My question is what fuse or what do I need to do to get the engine fan to stop turning on by itself and staying on by itself?

2004-2009 Mazda 3: Is the AC clutch on a 2008 Mazda Mazda 3 replaceable?

Fri, 07 Feb 2025 12:13:39 -0700

So my girlfriend has a Mazda 3 2.3 sport, about 3 months ago the ac suddenly stopped working after a road trip. That being said I'm a mechanic at a local shop but much to my dismay we sub contract our ac work. After countless hours of electrical testing pressure checking and tons of homework I found the ac clutch was seized. Does any one know if the clutch could be replaced in order to get the ac going again or is it a complete ac compressor job?

2004-2009 Mazda 3: Mazda 3 Check Engine Light P0126 & P0128

Fri, 19 Apr 2024 18:46:10 -0700

The two codes from the check engine light are: P0126 & P0128

Here is what I found according to my research:

P0126 is either replace coolant temperature sensor or replace the thermostat. According to my research, 99% of the people who had this code needed to replace the thermostat. Once that was replaced, 99% of the people said that the light turned off and that they noticed the car ran better than it did before. Some people said that the repair is about $100 (including the parts and labor) and that no one should pay over $200. People said that they were even able to replace it themselves (if you can get under the car). The thermostat part is LF7015170. I looked it up online from a Mazda parts dealer and it's about $45-$50 depending on which parts dealer you buy it from. I'm sure I could even find it on eBay for cheap too.

P0128 indicates that the computer is detecting that the engine is not reaching operating temperature within a reasonable time after startup. I am guessing that this relates to the issue with the thermostat, but I'm not 100% sure.

CAN ANYONE GIVE ME MORE ADVICE/INFORMATION AS TO WHAT I SHOULD DO? HOW MUCH IT WILL COST?

2004-2009 Mazda 3: Where can I find a TCM wiring harness for my 2.3l Mazda 3

Thu, 28 Sep 2023 15:37:13 -0700

I bought a 2007 Mazda 3 2.3 liter for $500 bucks, with the pre knowledge that it had an electrical issue. I've replaced the TCM and repositioned it. However, I saw somebody had cut and splice wires trying to fix the harness ( probably bc its so expensive to replace) So now I am trying to find the tcm wiring harness to plug and play. Ive went to multiple junk yards, every one of the tcm harnesses have been cut out, go figure.

Anybody have any ideas how to get this harness for reasonable or even what its called so I can search for it more specifically. I believe its the TCM wiring harness that connects to the TCM.

Thanks in advance!
