    OK - issue is resolved - sorta. Since my car has sorta high mileage - I'm really not trying to spend much money on it. So - after reviewing the schematic posted by Preferio (thanks), I knew the issue had to be the switch. I took some shortcuts when disassembling the dash - I did not remove...

    Blower motor circuit issue

    Thank you sir So, based on this - clearly the blower relay is working - providing +12v to the blower the ground side of the motor is getting full ground, even when the switch is set to off. It's as if the B/R wire from the fan is shorted to ground... hmm Going over bumps, kicking the dash...

I initially thought this would be related to a blower motor resistor pack - but even when switched OFF -...

    Fuse box

    how do you change the speed limiter on the 2008 mazda3?

    No, I have no need to bypass it, I was just offering a suggestion. If the ECU limits the speed based on the speed sensor, then remove this input form the ECU. I know on my motororcycle the speed limiter is specified by the RPM and the gear, since the computer knows both! Fooling the...

    Let's see some Mazda3 5-doors

    Sounds about right, this is why I ONLY tow trailers + loads with the correct tongue weight. Essentially, if I can't lift the tongue with one hand, then I don't tow it.
