When the truck is idling at low RPM, the charge supplied by alternator is not sufficient to run truck and charge battery of reverse polarity. Alternator expends majority of amperage toward charging (which never takes) and increase in RPM is required to spin alternator fast enough to accomodate ignition system and charging system in unison.

Which relay controls the starter for 1989 Mazda truck?
There are no relays that have any affect on the truck starting.If for some reason the truck has a starting issue I will list some.One battery is weak,or bad connections.Next alternator is not charging to full capacity.Starter solenoid is either bad,or has dead spots not engaging the starter when starting.Could be a multitude of things like bad ground wires from fender(rhs) to subframe,to block,or bad wires,coil or ignition control module(under distributor cap).Even a worn out ignition key cylinder where the key starts the truck can wear out creating a bad,no start scenario.Hope this gives a better answer to the possibilities of a no start.However start SIMPLE check the obvious battery,alternator(even alternator belt loose) and ground wires.Advance auto and and auto zone do free charging and battery checks to help isolate a issue in this area.
When your running lights and ac is on your truck shuts down what causes this?
Bad charging system? alternator or generator does not supply enough power to keep battery charged to operate accesories. Bad battery? can't hold charge.
