The past week or so I've been experiencing the wrench/spanner light illuminating approx. 5 mins after start-up only when under load (driving).
So far I've done the following:
(i) Completed the maint. light reset procedure of holding the odometer reset button while turning the ignition without starting the vehicle - light comes on after 5 min of driving. Previously this worked after doing an oil change
(ii) Let the car idle for over 10 mins - resulted in no light
(iii) Disconnected the battery, drained the residual by holding the brake pedal, and reconnected the battery - resulted in the auto up/down of the driver window to not work until I turn off the car then on again. Maybe this has to do with the light being on? I have found that when this maint. light is on the cruise control does not function at all.
I'm beginning to think there's an electrical issue here as I've noticed the following problems:
(i) Blinking door light after opening/closing passenger side door. Random blinking while driving, not always on.
(ii) Window switch didn't auto up/down after resetting battery and wrench light on. Requires further investigation as this is now working fine.
(iii) Cruise control does not function when wrench light on - maybe this is intended by Mazda/Ford?
Anyone have wiring diagrams for the 1st generation Mazda2? I'm not looking to pay a visit to the stealership. I have also read about grounding wires in the doors causing issues so I'll report back after I have some light to check that out.
Any feedback or help is greatly appreciated!
