IF you have the key in the on position, and you manually trip the starter relay is it any better? I had an issue similar to this and was not able to fix it, there had been some water that had gotten into the fuse block in the engine and cleaned it up a little and it started. Not sure if it'll work with yours, for me it was pry just dumb luck.

First RX, I guess I will have to give that a try and see where it leads.

Fast enough, I'm currently online if you have AIM hit me up at RotaryPoisonStar perhaps your expertise might lead me in a stronger direction. If this issue cannot be diagnosed I'm seriously considering swapping in all new wiring and doing the 13B RE swap and calling it a day./\

Get a wiring diagram and start at the starter and work back to battery or at the ignition switch, use that test light! Does the car have the factory alarm?

VenomStar

yes I believe it does, but i don't have the alarm key fob for it. The previous owner did not give me one with the vehicle.

There is no key fob, there are switches on the hood hatch and doors (dome light switches) oh and on the door handle drivers side when the car is locked with doors locked using the outside handle lifted the light in the center console will flash rapidly then slow bout every three or four sec. Worked on my 88 GXL till I tore it apart. My 93 is the same way. Get your hands on another CPU and try it. At least pull yours and look at it, east to remove and the base just snaps in. It may be fried. Fix one thing at a time dash lights may be another problem. Car must have had an electrical problem, or one was created why the need for and alternator and a starter?

VenomStar, I have a wiring diagram, where in NJ are you? If you are near Atlantic City, I could drop it off.

VenomStar

Mike I'm located near East Brunswick, five minutes from raceway park. So Altlantic City is a ways away from me bro. However I do appreciate your willingness to assist. Where are you located? perhaps you could come up and take a look at the car if you have some time. Two heads are always better then one.

Update: So I contacted Mazdatrix and explained to them the situation. They're telling me it IS the ignition switch that needs to be replaced, and mine simply just finally burned out. They want 120 shipped for one, brand new according to their parts associate I spoke with on the phone this evening. I'm looking to order one very soon hopefully after installing this it should clear up my issues. I appreciate everyone's kindness in diagnosing this matter. It's nice to know rotary owners stick together.
