The only wires to a manual transmission is the speedometer. Being a 95, it may not have wires. It could be cable. You could have pinched some wire when installing the transmission. My guess is you lost ground to the cluster. Since it comes on with the neutral switch engaged. When you engage it, the cluster finds the ground source threw it.
It should be electric but check to see if there is a cable from the engine to the dash . Tachos (rev counter) normally get their impulses from the distributor and the power from the ignition run line
If your 626 does not have the dipstick you have to take out the speedometer cable and you can check it right there...The cable has hash marks on it at the end.....Also Mazda had Transmission problems on this year model......
Sounds like the clocks have been tampered with if the speedometer is still working,
You can try running the miles backwards with a drill on the cable, and then forwards again past the number where it jammed, run it back and forth a few times and once it gets past the stuck number youre sorted... it may happen again in 1,10,100 or 1000 miles time... and if so youre best with a new or scrapyard speedometer - write down the original mileage when you change the speedometer - maybe on a panel under the bonnet so you have something to go off to decide when to service the car - EG old mileage + new mileage = actual mileage.
hope this helps.
If you mean fuel reset as in zeroing your mileage counter? just hold the button down that scrolls through your odometer readings, it'll zero out within a few seconds.
