all you need to do is take off the steering wheel and there is a little plastic ring with 2 tabs that stick up on the steering shaft. one or both are probably broken and thats why it wont cancel.

The cam usually breaks (thats the little ring with 2 **** on it that mate into the steering wheel). I've broken it on accident by forgetting to index the steering wheel before installation. They are avalible from Mazdatrix cheaply IIRC.

LOL I shoulda read Midwests post more carefully sorry. BTW its called a cancelling cam.

No problem. Ive been waiting to order one myself to replace the one I broke but Im waitng till I need something else from them as the shipping would be ridiculous on just that part.

You can get it from the dealer. No shipping costs. It is also fast. The dealer that I have gotten things from will send an order Monday and usually receive by Wednesday. Also, don't worry that the dealer will be too expensive. I bought mine about years ago and it was about $3.20 from the dealer at that time. One trick with Mazdatrix is they take the Mazda part number and switch it around. From the dealer, it should be like BA29-66-1260 (the end may be 126 instead of 1260).

EDIT: Here is the thread that you may have been looking for.
