Subject: The ol' Radio Problem
   Date: Fri, 1 Jul 1994 09:54:44 -0400


I just thought I'd drop a note and say how thankful I am to y'all for
helping me out with my radio problem. I have learned it's the power
supply/switch problem that seems to act up with humidity. Basically,
the radio won't come on for approximately 15 minutes and can then
still be intermittent. Anyhow, I'm currently waiting for a new one to
arrive, but in the mean time, I was wondering if anybody else has
experienced this problem, could they please call Mazda Customer
Service at 1-800-222-5500. They told me I was the first one to call in
with the problem. I find that hard to believe since all I had to do
was mention "radio problem" on this mail list, and several of you knew
what I was talking about before I even mentioned the symptoms. Maybe
the calls would result in a service bulletin being issued and others
in the future won't have the same hassles some of us have had. You
never know when it could happen, I lived in Phoenix for 3 years and
never had a problem. Just moved to Austin and the radio goes, and the
trunk won't open half the time. I guess if that is all the problems
I've had in three years, I should be thankful!
