Whoops! Blam!
Wired the power relay in backwards and routed the alternator output to earth! Disaster - nearly. Luckily the devilish cunning chaps at Mazda anticipated this boo-boo and all I lost were a couple of fuses - I could have fried the alternator. Some panic and a couple of fuses later and all was well again, though I have cooked the power relay. I'll get a fresh one.
Lesson: Double-check your connections, and stick a small fuse in near to the relay when wiring it. I've added a 5A inline blade fuse.
