This Service Bulletin contains a new Heating System Troubleshooting

had complained about a lack of heat for several winters. The
effectiveness of these procedures was confirmed.
SPECIAL NOTE

Training Courses on Climate Control Systems.

INTRODUCTION
An investigation was conducted using customer vehicles at dealer-ships
across North America over a two year period. The investigation was
conducted to determine if there were any concerns that were difficult
to repair using existing Mazda repair manuals.
The following list represents items most commonly left unrepaired or
undiagnosed by the dealer.
1. Air leakage between the blower unit and the cooler unit.
2. Missing or mis-installed sealing grommets in the firewall.
3. Incorrect operation of the thermostat.
4. Improper usage of the recirculation and fresh air mode of the
ventilation system.
In order to assist in the correct diagnosis and repair of Heating
System concerns the following troubleshooting manual was developed.
See Fig. 1. for a visual description of the Climate Control System.
