95 Mazda 626, 4 cylinder. Turned key and no click sound. I replaced the battery and the car started right up. Drove to work. When leaving, turned key no click sounds, could it be the start switch or starter? Thanks, LarryNie

check alternator drive belt could be slipping causing battery not to charge.

It sounds like you may have a leaking brake master cylinder. Do not drive this until a technician can confirm my guess as to the problem.

Have tranny rebuilt. Sounds like it gummed up.

CHECK BATTERY AND CONECTION MAY BE LOOSE OR CORRODED
TRY TO JUMP START ///LOAD TEST ALTERNATOR TO SEE POWER OUTPUT
CHECK ALL FUSES RELATED TO IGNITION

try to boost the battery if star replace battery

Sounds like corroded battery terminals

It sounds like the alternator is bad but have it tested before you replace it. if you have a meter you can check the voltage with the engine running and the lights on. the volts at the battery should be just at 13.8v dc. If the voltage drops below 11.5v dc with the engine running and the lights on then the alternator is most likely bad. hope this helped. Good luck.

sounds like the starter, i dont think its siezed the motor in that short distance. try and hit the starter with a hammer or something with someone turning the key at the same time, it should start with acouple trys. if it does than u need a new starter.

we'll assume fuel is good..leaving spark and air..and management of systems(computer /sensors)...so the speedo cable was disconnected? try taking it loose again , test drive and report back please

Yes, it could be as simple as a bad battery. But it could also be a bad wire from the battery to the starter or bad wire from the fuse block to the starter. Based on your information, I'd say the battery you have now is either junk or just doesn't have enuf amperage to turn the starter over. Perhaps you just needed to put the NEW battery you bought on charge for a day before you installed it. Batteries sit on the shelf for a long time sometimes before they get sold and lose some of their charge. When you buy a battery at a garage, you should always MAKE them load test the battery before you pay for it. That way you'll know EXACTLY how much charge is on it. Don't just expect to install the new battery and think the car will start right up. This is a huge mistake. If they tell u they have to charge it first, just tell them to load test it ONLY and make them let u watch. If they won't do either of those things....go to another garage. That being said, they'll probably not have a problem with u physically seeing the condition of the battery. It's much easier (and smarter) for them to keep ur business and sell u a battery than to shuffle u off and let someone else make $$. Good luck to you.
