    Difference between front blower relays?

    2010 2.4l gas. I replaced the HVAC Resistor (1712804) located in the passenger footwell and all is well.

    Difference between front blower relays?

    Anyone know the difference between these two relays? They both say "F. BLOWER RELAY". If I take the lower right one out my heat/AC front cabin fan cuts out. I can't tell what the upper left one does. Any ideas?

    2010 Mazda5 100K miles: Belts? Tensioner? Idler?

    I finally got around to installing these parts. Spark plugs were easy, all came gapped just right (1.25―1.35 mm (0.049―0.053 in)). I'm glad I did the belts, they were pretty worn on the inside. The tensioner pulley was a little rattle-y too. I was disappointed in the ACDELCO (1540486 (15-40486))...

    2010 Mazda5 100K miles: Belts? Tensioner? Idler?

    I agree. I couldn't be too choosy with brands because I was ordering a lot of other stuff from Rock Auto and was trying to save on shipping. I had to order based on shipping origin, not brand. I don't know if Mazda sells the pulley or not. I wouldn't be surprised; they sell wiper blade refills...

    2010 Mazda5 100K miles: Belts? Tensioner? Idler?

    Thanks @dougsey. I stumbled across this video, which I found helpful. I ended up ordering the two belts and a new tensioner pulley but not the tensioner. Seems like the tensioner is the most expensive part. I skipped the kits because they all included the tensioner. Also I skipped the install...

    2010 Mazda5 100K miles: Belts? Tensioner? Idler?

    Our 2010 Mazda5 Sport (original owners) recently hit 100K miles. I was all ready to pull the trigger on new belts and pulleys from RockAuto, when I figured I would at least pop the hood and take a look at the original belts. To me, they look fine. There are three marks on the tensioner, the...
