Going on what you have said with the door open warning light coming on id say there is a good possibility that it could also be bringing your interior lights on which in turn has flattened your battery ??
Are you using decent thickness jump leads or argos specials ?

It really depends on your van layout & where you will be sitting to watch it. Mines is a specific roof mounted unit so doesn't need an additional bracket. I have fitted mines at the rear of the van in the roof (not the AFT board) with the screen facing towards the front of the van as I have reve...

Can we assume that you have checked all the fuses ?

If anyone knows what other uk model mazda's use this engine & what years i will look up autodata to see if it lists as an interference engine or not.

Ok, so done a bit of mythbusting today. Shorting out the switch doesent work to bypass it as the switch has to be pressed then released before the roof will close.

But if you join the 2 wires at the switch wont it be like the switch button being held down constantly ?

Ive also been thinking of doing this, not looked at a wiring diagram yet but couldnt you just leave the switch wiring shorted out so as to simulate the switch being held down all the time ?

assuming you have a 95 2.5 diesel model then A1-01 is the starter motor (with combined solenoid) & A1-04 is the starter relay.

The year, engine type & auto or manual gearbox will help someone answer your question better.

Is that converted or unconverted ?

I've just taken out a new policy for the bongo with admiral & found that i'm not covered to drive other cars (on a third party only basis). I understand age & your occupation can have an effect on this but when I called to query this they said it was the type of vehicle I was insuring. Does ...

I don't see how anyone draining the fuel tank would mess about with any of the afore mentioned sensors....got to be something very simple. Not sure either, like I say im not familiar with the petrol Bongo setups, not sure if they drained the tank from the filler neck or a fuel pipe in the engine ba...

Not familiar with the setup on the petrol bongos but the pulsed coil earth is normally provided by the injection ECU which gets its spark information signal from the crankshaft sensor, are the injectors being pulsed when the engine is cranked ? check to make sure the crank sensor plug has not been d...
