I have a 94 1.8l. I was checking my compression the other day and while I was doing so my battery seemed like it was dying while checking the 4 cylinder. so I but everything back together and tried to turn my miata on but the battery was died. I had put it to charge and I put it back on and the car did the same thing as if the battery is dead. Had the every happened to anyone? And I'd it had what was the issue?

 

Have you... I dunno...checked the voltage on the battery? Bring it to any auto parts store and have them test it.

Edit: did you disconnect your coilpack before doing the compression tests?

 

Battery voltage was good and no I did not disconnect the coil pack

 

I'd still get the battery tested, especially if it is older. When doing compression tests it is advisable to disconnect the coilpack as they have been known to fry when cranking and not connected to a spark plug. If the battery tests out fine, find a spare coilpack and see if that is the issue.

 

Ok and also the car trys to turn over but it start to click also as if the battery was dead

 

Are you taking about the igniton coil cause I dont have coil packs

 

Unless you have COPs, you certainly do.

 

Have you considered that the battery might be dead?

 

Batterie ist toten

 

What is COPs??

 

Coil on plugs ignition. This is where you no longer use a spark plug wire but move to a style of coil that sits directly over the spark plug.

 

 

Ok So then what wrong with my miata?

 

Have you checked your battery?

 

It's good and I even bought a new one still did the same thing

 

Does the car crank? Does the starter click?

 

The car cranks then stops crankning and starts clicking

 

Is there anyway I can post a video?

 

Check the starter solenoid.

Also check the starter relay and that related stuff, might be a fried bit causing the starter to not get the voltage it needs to turn over.

 

Where can I find the relay at?
