Usually if I wait 30-60 minutes, it will eventually start. I've had it to my mechanic 3 times and problem still persists.

I am having exact same problem right now with my 2010 Mazda 3, if you got this fixed or resolved can you let me know please?? I am about to call a mechanic about the wire to the started being corroded and see if that's it. Thanks.

Have the same issue as what you all describing here
 
Hello,

I just bought a used Mazda 3 2004, 5-speed with 150,000 miles on.
The car won't start at first, I have to try about 8 times in order for it to start.
Once it starts, it works just fine. No check engine light on or anything like that.

Does anyone know why?

Hello, I just decided to fix it (three days ago). To be honest, I was so scared it would cost lots of money. I ended up paying $125 to my local mechanic. It was a very simple fix according to him. A broken piece in the steering wheel was the issue, I cant recall the name of it. The part itself was only $60 plus $55 in labor.

2010 Mazda3 Intermittent Problem Starting

A friend had the same problem, and the dealer said it was door sensors malfunctioning, replaced two, and the problem appeared to go away but the problem returned 6 months later.

Anyone know if the 2004-2008 starter wire problem also applies to the 2010 model?

Thanks!

Mazda 3 Starters
 
I have a 2008 Mazda 3isport, with about 105K miles. After five years, the original starter died. Had it replaced with an after market starter. That lasted about six months. Had that replaced with a Mazda starter. That lasted 18 months. Why do these starters keep failing?

FWIW (and it ain't worth much), your first starter did OK. 105k miles seems OK to me. The second starter sounds like it was poorly made. If your second starter went 105k miles, that'd be about the lifetime of your Mazda3.

Also, if you hold the key, see if the security light on the dash flashes - if so there's a problem with the car reading the key RFID. In which case you can try a second key for your car.

Thank you thank you thank you it works when I have it on neutral☺.

Please can someone help me out here.... I have a 2006 Mazda 3 1.6L I just changed the top gasket and piston rings am done but its cranking but won't start. Please I need urgent help.

I have an 07 Mazda 3 and it won't start either. I have to use my 900 amp jump starter to get it going. I know it's not the battery it runs everything else fine and it starts up another vehicle I own just fine. Sometimes the car will start on its own after some coaxing and feathering the throttle. Once I get it to start it runs fine though. Any ideas about what the problem is?

If you let it sit for a while then try it again it starts and runs lke there was never a problem right? I printed the bulletin, and tried to show the Mazda service guys near me (Peterborough, Ontario, Canada) and they told me that it wasn't a known problem and the bulletin wasn't Canadian. The service guys in Brampton (where I work) were very quick to recognise the problem and fix me up. Great guys!

The small wire at the the starter has corroded out, and needs to be replaced. I will have another look around here and find the service bulletin for you.

FOUND IT!!

does anyone have a copy of http://www.finishlineperformance.com...7-08-1960a.pdf?[/url] This link no longer works and I am desperate to get a copy to fix my Mazda 3 that won't start and it isn't the battery. It was cranking fine and all day wouldnl't turn over and then BAM it worked. Mechanic doesn't want to replace the fuel pump as it is clear it is working and apparently this bulletin explains how to fix this. HELP.

Bulletin Found
 
I may be mistaken but I believe I have found the bulletin. My 08 5 speed has been having these problems for the past two years. I've changed two starters and i'm still having the issue hopefully this will finally fix the issue.

Good Luck all.
