94 Mazda miata and it wont start you thought might be the battery so put a brand new one in but not have headlights dash lights come onand when try to it?

Here are a few things to check:

1. Battery terminals: Ensure that the battery terminals are clean and free of corrosion. Clean them with a wire brush if necessary.

2. Ground connection: Check the ground connection between the battery and the chassis. Ensure it is tight and clean.

3. Starter motor: Check if the starter motor is receiving power. You can do this by using a multimeter to test for voltage at the starter solenoid.

4. Fuel: Check if the fuel pump is working and if the fuel filter is clogged.

5. Ignition switch: Check if the ignition switch is faulty. You can do this by bypassing the ignition switch and seeing if the car starts.

6. ECU: Check if the Engine Control Unit (ECU) is receiving power and is not damaged.

If you are not comfortable performing these checks, it is best to take your car to a qualified mechanic for diagnosis and repair.
