Hello!
I'm preparing to install an Alarm System with remote door control.
For starting, I need to know what kind of central door locking is on the Mx3.
Question: Is there an electric motor in the drivers door like there is in the passenger's one?

I don't think so b/c if you unlock the PS door the drivers stays locked.

No there is not, the mazda has a passenger door actuator that can be controlled by the drivers door. Inorder for you to install door locks in that car all you need is a single door actuator(which goes in the drivers door) and two relays with the alarm and you good to go. If you need assitance with the wiring or anything let me know or any info on how to do any of this, i would be glad to help ya!

I've instaled the alarm looking at workshop's manual...
I still have some questions. Any help will be appreciated!!
So, my alarm has a wire Engine Power Cut Off Loop, but it's hang loose coz I dont know were to link it.
It also as a ACC On Wire wich I connect to the car's ACC wire (near the Key Switch)
Are those two wires supposed to make bridge to ACC Power in the car??

If you are referring to starter kill or ignition kill if you have manual transmission car then YES. If your car is manual transmission than what you do is cut the main ignition wire that is found at the key switch and ignition wire AND one side of the starter kill wire are going to go towards the key side (pin 87a) and the other left over wire which should be pin 30 on the relay will go to the car side of the wire cut. That is callled ignition kill. If you car is auto then you would do it like this, find the ignition wire and tap into it with the ignition wire from the alarm, then you find the starter wire at the key switch aswell and cut the starter wire and oin 30n again towards the car side and pin 87a goes to the key side.
Let me know if you need colours if you cant find these wires and i will post them for ya.

Normally they are starter cutoffs, or at least that's what I have on mine. If it is really an engine cut off I guess it would go on the second on wire (which I think was purple, but don't quote me). However, the wire through the relay is green, which is generally the starter wires color, so I would use it as a starter kill. The yellow connects to the module, I would assume the white goes to ground.

Would be glad to know the ignition switch wire's colors on the car.
This alarm (brand Giordon, by the way) has a Hijacking Thief feature wich cut the engine off, after 10 seconds activated.
On the alarm manual there is a Engine Cut Off Loop wire wich is yellow and a ACC On wire wich is white. I assume those are the one to connect the relay.

So if we have a Engine Cut Off situation here, my question is, what is the wire to intercept? I suppose it's the wire activated by the key when we turn the engine off...
This shitty manual doesn't say a single thing about the relay
cheers dudes

ok, as i can see from that horrible manual is that you take the yellow wire from the brain and attach it to the yellow on the relay which is your negative armed out when the alarm is armed. The white wire on the relay should go to ignition so that when it is armed and the key is turned the relay with open and the circuit will shut down. the colour in the car to cut and attach the two greens AND you ignition wire is ( blue 10 guage wire ) from the key cylinder. make sure that the pin that says 87a goes towards the key cylinder with the ignition wire from the alarm brain aswell. then the pin 30 will go out towards the motor. hope this helps you.
