Today when pumping gas after i was done and tried to leave, I noticed my power driver side seat wouldn't move. After a while I noticed that the remote FOB key wouldnt work either. When I try and lock/unlock the doors or trunk I cant. I cant open my trunk period, not even from the inside driver side. I can hear a slight clicking sound from under the glove compartment. Anyone have a simple fix, or do i have to go to the dealer?

 

Check to see if you have a blown fuse. Ther are door-lock related fuses in both the engine compartment fuse block and the fuse block by the dead-pedal. See your owner's manual fo details.

 

also see if you have switched over to valet mode

 

valet mode shouldnt affect door lock operation or power seat operation

 

Is your passenger seat warmer light on? If so, I had your same symptoms once. It was because I had water spill onto one of the connections under the passenger seat, causing a short. I unpluged the seat warmer cord and the passenger side airbag cord (both accessable from the rear seat under the passenger seat) and let it dry out for a day. Then connected it back, and everything went back to normal. Hope this helps.

edit: just read that you were having a problem with the drivers side seat. Check the same cords under the drivers seat, unplug them and see if the fob works again.

 

And I just noticed last night that my sunroof wont operate either. Where is the fuse box located in the engine compartment? And does it come with a tool to remove the fuses to see if they're burnt?

 

If anyone knows a for-sure fix, can you please email at jayjoiner@gmail.com thanks a lot for the help guys!

 

Makes sense. Power door locks and sunroof are on the same fuse on the interior fuse block.

See your owner's manual Maintenance section and Fuse subsection for details on both where the fuse blocks are and also the fuse layout. It in pages 8-33 to 8-38 in the 2004 owner's guide.

 

thanks

 

I swapped the fuse, and still doesn't work. Anyone have any ideas?

 

If it's still under warranty take it to a Mazda shop and have them troubleshoot the problem. It won't cost you anything unless you screwed something up installing aftermarket junk. It's very difficult, if not impossible, to remotely diagnose an electrical problem.

 

Also, I can hear like a clicking sound coming from beneath the glove compartment area.
