Turbo timer wiring issues
 
Hi guys bought a turbo timer off ebay and it has just had the wires cut out terribly and i have no wiring diagram and the turbo timer has no make on it :roll:

It came out of a FRST im wondering what wires are for what there are 5 wires coming out the back which are
2 red wires....lives?
1 yellow
1 black......earth?
1 blue......remote of some sort?

All help appreciated :grin:

what make is the turbo timer?

i can only hazard a guess

black = will be earth
red x 2 = permanent feed & switched feed maybe?
yellow = illumination maybe?
blue = maybe connects into handbrake?

some turbo timers connects into the handbrake

Bung it back on ebay mate, they are a pointless gizmo anyway.

If you really want to use it the make and model would help no end.

HAHA cheers Ben! :cry:
It was more of a pissed up ebay bid on a friday night :cry:

i dont run watercooling but even so....i drive off boost for at least 2 miles before i get home.....even then i wait 2 minutes etc etc

Just thought a timer might come in handy.....if i cant find the diagram the hammer will be out :king:
