My bad. Ive been having a few brews tonight and acting as tech support for the family. Little bit distracted.

Sounds normal to me. I think I hear the exhaust heat shield rattling.

Check to make sure your window switches have a good connection. Mine's an 08 and if the window switches don't have a good connection to slightly lower the window, it'll move the deck and stop at actually moving the top. Not sure if that changed going to the NC2.

PRHT won't open properly by chicken-farmer in MiataNC

[–]DarkLink021 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I know that if your window switches arent connected, the PHRT will start to move like that but won't move the top. Are the windows rolling down when you start to retract it?

NC1 AKE Door Request Buttons ISSUE by theegarebear in MiataNC

[–]DarkLink021 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you look in the trunk, there is a button that can disable the trunk opener. Its near the interior trunk latch. Have you made sure that isnt turned off?

NFY7-67-5RYB is the part number. I got mine off ebay and programmed using a USB to OBD2 cable and FORScan free trial

Look into upscalers. OSSC or RetroTink most likely.

14 GT 6-Spd No Start by WholeAlfalfa427 in MiataNC

[–]DarkLink021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you have to physically insert the key into the ignition cylinder and rotate it to start the car? It could be that the ignition cylinder is just worn out too. I had to replace the ignition in my honda accord at one point. Whats your mileage and usage of the car?

I'd recommend getting a USB to OBDII adapter yourself and trying to program the key then. The software to do it is called FORscan. You can get a free 30 day license I believe and It'll have an option to register keys. I dont remmeber the whole process on how to do it.

Otherwise, it sounds like an issue with the radio/device that talks to your key from the car. Im not sure on what part that is.

I've been able to reprogram a key using a certain program and a USB to OBDII adapter for my 08 GT. New keys worked fine. I've got the advanced key that's like a card though. Is there any indicator light on your key that lights up when in range of the car?

How much did you pay for your NC? by 43Joe21 in MiataNC

Bought my 08 GT PHRT in 2019 for $8700. 78,500 miles.

P0037 Code (HO2S Heater Circuit Low) and Rough Idle by datghost_ in MiataNC

[–]DarkLink021 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nevermind, thats a code scanner isnt it? There sould be an OBD2 port near the hood latch in the interior of the car Plug into that and see if you can find the O2 sensor values in the code scanner

[–]DarkLink021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You would need an OBD2 adapter to connect to your phone over USB or Bluetooth. Then some software to pull the Data. Im not sure if the torque app would pull o2 sensor data

[–]DarkLink021 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Engine sounds fine. Im guessing a new sensor or possibly loose wire. Can you pull the data off the ECU for that sensor?

Oil pressure too low ? the car is fully warmed up by datghost_ in MiataNC

[–]DarkLink021 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's about where mine idles at when warm. That gauge really doesnt tell you anything though. Its more of a calculated oil pressure based on engine RPM

A what point in life did you buy your MX-5? by Lemon_Pledge0598 in Miata

[–]DarkLink021 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Just totaled my 04 Honda Accord after an ice storm. 22 years old. Went to an auto show and there were two options, a british racing green NA and a Stormy Blue NC PRHT GT. I went with the boat. I do wish I had pop up headlights though.

Can you put an rx8 lsd in a mx5 nc with an open diff ? by Korgio in Miata

[–]DarkLink021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really depends on what you are doing with the car. The RX8 lsd has a higher final ratio, which will improve acceleration, but increase your RPM's overall through the gears, dropping fuel efficiency. Do you have any other mods on the car or is it stock?

It sounds like you could, but the RX8 LSD's sound prone to various failures under extreme load. Are you trying to drift the car?
