SpraynardKruger 0 Report post Posted July 20, 2020 Hey lads, I'm new here- but I'm having so many strange issues with the 2013 Mazda 3 I bought not long ago. It dies in the garage, I've gotten the battery checked- its at 75% capacity so it's fine, and there's nothing plugged into it to drain it. This morning I went out to turn it on after I got it jump-started and I pressed the button- it turned on, great- but the steering-wheel was locked, and the car wasn't actually "on". I then tried to turn it off- the car then went into a cycle of turning itself on and off, saying "Goodbye" and then turning back on for about 1 minute straight, on off on off- I wasn't touching the ignition on at all, I had only hit it the one time. Before, it made a sound like it was flooding when I turned it on, but this time it cycled through this and I was scared I wouldn't be able to turn it back "off" so I took the keys away from it and shut the door, opened it back up and it finally turned off. I cannot find a single answer to any of this- even why it dies when the battery is still good. Would any of you know why this is happening? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The repair shop master said that by unplugging the central control computer version, the current could return to normal. But changing to a central control computer is too expensive!!
