So motor goes to turn off but turns back on again just.

From memory, inside is a worm drive, and the contacts for controlling the extension/retraction are on tracks on the driven wheel. IIRC the pins for extend/retract are different - ie apply power to extend pin and it extends and then breaks the extend circuit once its fully out. At that point the retract circuit contacts are made on the worm wheel and its ready to receive power on the retract pin.
Sounds to me like you've got both the extend and retract pins powered....

Hmm ok. Well i used that wiring diagram you posted. It spins 180? between the off position and the on position, its just that the shaft the cable goes on is in the wrong position in relation to where the cable should be fully extended

Sounds more like a edic relay issue than a mechanical one

Bin it.
I have pull to stop knobs on both of mine
Keep it simple.

Sorry Keith, seen as my vehicle is 94, it then makes it illegal.

How? Its just a relay

I had an issue with corrosion on the pins of mine which made it do some strange things.
Might be worth pulling it out and cleaning the plug contacts

Relay is fine, it cycles perfectly (180?), its just clocking in the wrong position.
Don't know whether its a mazda thing or not. (Mazda t3500 edic motor)
