An economy SUV by Mazda, not the greatest sport utility vehicle in the world, just a Tribute. Made in the USA by Ford Motor Company. Simply a rebadged Ford Escape.

Why won't my Mazda 2003 tribute won't start?

Car is getting sufficient fuel and spark but won't start.

@moonblue have you tried to get the OBD scanned? what have you checked? How do you know that it is "getting sufficient fuel"? You checked the fuel pressure?

Check wires! Mine somehow shorted out. The wiring harness for the engine goes behind and between the alternator and starter. I think there was a clip holding it up away from the heat because I found some plastic pieces broken back there same color/size as others. No idea what it was supposed to look like before. Anyway that part of the harness’s wires melted causing a short to either the starter or alternator. I'm still trying to figure out which one. Not easy to access! Hope this helps a little.
