I installed a Turbo timer in my 94 St and after the keys off the car dies but all power stays on till the timer counts down then it kills the power. Isn't it suppose to.keep the car running till the timer counts down? A quick responds would be amazing thanks in advance

Edit. I'm using the black w/ red stripe is 12volt
blue w/red stripe is acc.
And gray is the other acc.

i really dont know, turbo timers are a waste of money. you only need one if you are driving the car really hard, like road racing, and then was going to shut down the engine. just normal every day driving, and then turning off the engine will not damage anything. and if you were worried about it, then sit in your car for 30 seconds and then turn off the engine.

Already thanks. That's all I was asking. But I probably will figure out how to get it working right later. I was in a rush because I'm fixing to put the Turbo on it hopefully this coming up days off (next monday-wednesday). Thanks Smaay

i wasnt yelling at you, i just dont know what you have hooked up incorrectly. My supra came with one and i do know that i need the E-brake pulled or it wont work. if i turn off the engine with the E-brake down, it just shuts off

There are two ignition wires. Blue/red and black/orange. You will need to attach to both to effectively keep the car running. I'm pretty sure you can detach from the gray acc wire and attach it to the black/orange wire as the car doesn't need to see the acc position to run

best thing to do is to get a harness for our car. The ones listed for the st205 work perfectly in our cars and you don't have to cut up your wiring.
