Mazda Tribute Thermostat
The Mazda Tribute Thermostat maintains engine temperature at the optimum level to ensure that the SUV runs efficiently and smoothly without any power wastage due to cold startups and excessive heat buildup during extended ascents. It is a simple mechanical device; this Thermostat is installed in the coolant passageway close to the radiator and has a wax pellet, which expands when the temperature increases and shrinks when the engine cools to limit the amount of coolant flowing and allow the block to warm faster. Initial designs of the compact SUV applied the same reliable wax pellet design, and subsequent model years maintained the same principle because it has a short response time, is very accurate, and needs no additional power, which fits perfectly the electrical requirements of the Mazda midsize vehicle. Although domestic climate systems have digital displays or the ability to be remotely controlled, the engine unit in all Tributes still uses the same bimetal and wax technology, and the focus is on service life rather than pointless displays. Owners will observe that the constant gauge reading is the direct consequence of the fast back-and-forth cycle of the device between open and closed positions that reduces thermal stress on gaskets, oil, and internal parts of their Mazda. The replacement of a damaged unit with the proper Mazda specification will reinstitute the factory warm-up time, fuel economy protection, and emission control. Maintaining the Tribute Thermostat is thus important, and with appropriate coolant and regular inspection a true Mazda unit will be able to provide numerous miles of comfortable temperature regulation.

Mazda Tribute Thermostat Parts and Q&A
- Q: How to replace the thermostat and thermostat housing on Mazda Tribute?A:Replacement of thermostat and thermostat housing is in the form of an assembly on the 1.5L, 1.6L, 2.3L, 2.5L, and 2013 and subsequent 2.0L models with thermostats. Start by unplugging the cable of the negative battery terminal and emptying out the cooling system, and keep the coolant in a good condition. On 2004 and earlier 4 cylinder, V6 models, find the thermostat by tracing the lower radiator hose to the engine, remove the hose clamp, and take off the hose. The cover of the thermostat housing is supposed to be changed in case of corrosion. Take the mounting bolts of the thermostat cover and remove the cover, making sure to be ready to get coolant spillage. Record the thermostat orientation and take the thermostat off. On 2005 and later 2.0L, 2.3L, 2.5L and 3.0L, protect the alternator against coolant spillage and on 2.3L engines drivebel as well as air intake tube on 2008 and earlier V6 3.0L models. Unscrew heater hose and the radiator hose with the thermostat housing, unscrew the bolts on the housing cover and the thermostat. On 1.5L, take off the drivebelt, the A/C Compressor and then the alternator. In 1.6L models, go through the procedure of removing the thermostat housing, removing radiator and heater hoses. Wipe out all old gasket material on the housing and cover, place in new rubber gasket, and make sure that the thermostat is fitted in with the jiggle valve at 12 o'clock. Install the thermostat housing/cover and screw the bolts in place, reconnect the radiator hoses and ensure the clamps are tightened. Add coolant, reattach the battery and leave the Powertrain Control Module to remake its idle and fuel trim program. Turn on the engine and allow it to attain normal operating temperature and ensure that there is no leakage or malfunctioning of the thermostat.
