Check engine light came on during recent cold weather. Took car to Auto Zone to have error code read. Error code returned P0126 and P0128. Checked Internet forums and determine faulty thermostat was most likely the issue. Purchased new thermostat at Mazda dealership for $ 65. Replaced part myself. Check engine light now off.

I just bought this vehicle and the engine light came on the day after I bought it!!! Autozone checked it out for me and the code directs us to the Thermostat!!! I noticed the timing belt is older so I will change it as well, the tensioner "pulley" is making a noice so I will take a look at it and hopefully with some grease I can get rid of the noice. I also notice a ratle on the driver's side front end which i'm guessing will be the shocks or maybe tie rod ends?

OBD Code P0126 keeps coming on. Probably the thermostat is sticking open although the engine temperature appears to warm up in the proper amount of time even on cold mornings. Once the engine warms up, the temp gauge is near the mid-point between H and C (where it should be). After reading the numerous posts from people who have replaced the thermostat multiple times I am hesitant to replace mine. I wonder if it is really a software issue.

Had to have the thermostat replaced 3 times in the past year and a half average bill for this is $ 500 nice to know Mazda is doing nothing about this problem

Check engine light came on. The next day it was off, yet, I noticed the gauge showed that the car was overheating. Noticed coolant was low and battery had corrosion. The battery is new, so I didn't understand why this was happening. After taking my car to Hall, I was charged $ 69 for a diagnostic and was told it would cost $ 500 for a new thermostat, reprogramming, and antifreeze.x

CEL came on after about 30 miles of driving after letting car sit for 4 hours after driving for 60 miles. Temps had been in the upper 20's and low 30's. Asked Advance Auto Parts to scan using OBDII and was advised that it was either temp sensor or thermostat. Have not yet sought repair.

Had the thermostat replaced twice, check engine light comes on, I take it in and they say it's a thermostat problem, it's ridiculous. Never had another car with a thermostat problem.

Check engine light came on. The code was P0126 Insufficient Coolant...Cleared the code and was told to come back if the light came back on. It did. So I am now waiting for appointment to have the therm replaced.
