As far as I know, the MKI & MKII Have a conventional mechanical auto box.
There is a mechanical selector lever connected to the box in the normal way.
There is an electrical switch on the selector arm, (Mazda call it the range switch), but all that does is the Neutral/Park starter inhibitor and also the reverse light switch.
No sign of any autobox ECU.

My GM 4L30E box has a mechanical select rod that needs to be adjusted for exact positioning and also has the inhibit/reverse switch in the selector quadrant, along with a park lock deactivated by the brake light switch and switches for "sport" and "winter" modes.
It also has a massive trans ECU (bigger than the engine ECU) but it doesn't live in the equally massive relay box under the bonnet with the engine ECU. In the original Vauxhall fitment it was hidden behind the dash on the drivers side right up under the bottom of the screen. Unless you were really looking hard, you'd never find it! I've shortened the loom considerably and mounted it behind the glove box on the Dolomega.
