How do you know that they are not fully lighting? Also I doubt that the bulbs in the care are LED.

Take the alternator to an auto parts store and get it tested. I have had many rebuilts that were no good over the years. Also check it with a second Voltage tester to confirm yours is correct.

This part is just behind the glove box and appears to be easy to remove and inspect. You might try that first. If the part is bad you should be able to see the defective component like a burned resistor or other electronic component. See this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttbJoyl2xgY

There is no magic "fix" button for this kind of issue. You will need to perform standard diagnostics on the vehicle to determine the fault. Begin by reading out stored codes from the ECU to see which sensors were detecting an out-of-parameter condition, then begin your diagnosis from that point. Things to check:

• Timing belt;
• Throttle Position Sensor;
• Fuel pressure at rail (after changing fuel filter, of course);
• Condition of spark plug wires;
• Condition of spark plugs;
• Operation and condition of coil pack(s);
• Operation of fuel injectors;
• Fuel condition (replace ALL FUEL if you suspect contamination).

The fuel pump would be a good place to start with but it would be beneficial to have the car scanned for trouble codes because it could be many things. Have a friend remove the gas cap and place their ear close to the opening while you switch the ignition to the ON/RUN position, the fuel pump will run for a few seconds if it isn't dead. It will sound like a high pitched whine if in good condition.

Can anyone guess at & list ten items?You have to know basic auto mechanics& have some test equip, such as a fuel pressuregauge,volt meter & code reader.Without factory quality diagnostic manuals to study& follow, you will be asking for help for years.Do you have fuel pressure at the engine?Do you plan on buying wiring diagrams as youprogress to finding components to test in theelectrical systemYou can't throw parts at it in the hope you willget lucky,you have to develop your own teststrategy you use on all vehicles,& that requiresa great deal of theory & basic knowledge.

This answer is already posted here on fixya. Here's a link to a photo: http://i.fixya.net/uploads/images/jturcotte_2447.gif

if this is fitted with a viscous fan hub and not electric fans then replace the hub. do the normal compression test and coolant pressure test to check cooling system and head gaskets.

by new battery you mean brand new off the shelf in which case the voltage would have been 12.5volts and not 11.5 volts. battery voltage will drop while cranking an engine but should recover to 12 volts when stopped. The alternators charge directly to the battery by the red wire from the back of the alternator to the positive terminal of the battery. The other smaller wires are for the regulator control and charge lights. Take the vehicle to an accredited auto electrician to have the fault rectified.

First pull the timing belt tensioner then slip the belt off the cam gears. You then need to find TDC (Top dead center). 3 ways to find TDC 1) There are marks on the crank pulley align them for TDC. 2) Remove timing cover and use crank gear mark seen in link below 3) Put the dip stick in cylinder 1 and turn engine until dip stick stops going up. After finding TDC align cam gear marks seen in link below. Now make sure both cam and crank stay in position and slip timing belt back on (you can move the cam gear to get the belt on but make sure the marks are aligned after the belt is on). Last tighten the belt tensioner, I usually use my finger or an extension to get some more tension on the belt. You might have to remove engine mount bracket makes life much easier as the front cover section is TIGHT !!!. Turn engine a few times to make sure you have compression and engine turns without getting stuck. See link below good luck. http://bladeagenos21.soup.io/post/374487151/timing-marks-on-mazda-626-1994-diagram

could be tires, alignment or there may be a loose steering wheel or steering column. Start with the tire pressures.

the freezout plugs are round plugs pressed into both sides of the engine block

Was the coolant & oil mixed when drained? Definitely change the oil too. Check the plugs, fuel psi & volume last but not least heads & gaskets.
