Default Another turbo timer + alarm question!

so i read all the writeups of making this work (https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1328129)


but only have a single question left. the constant 12v coming out of the alarm (red in the diagram) -- is it still connected to the ignition harness? or does it go directly to the relay?

cant figure in my head if im supposed to leave the alarm with or without power!



diagram 1 is the original... diagram 2 is with the 12v still hooked up. which one is it?

If you get a remote start alarm, the turbo timer is built in and just has to be enabled.

Yes, the alarm needs 12v constant to operate. The first diagram doesn't make sense. Use the second one.

ok -- so i ran into a problem here....

the turbo timer is looking for 0v from the gray wire at all times. if it see's 12v, it will automatically turn the car off.

so, with the gray wire on 86, and 12v on 85, the timer will not work at all.

i was thinking of reversing the polarity... or..... ahh jeez i dont even know. dunno if i should even be doing this =/

OK -- for all the folks who are reading (nobody )

the problem i'm having arises from the fact that the greddy timers have a gray wire (used for shift-lock in japan)


my top fuel, and apexi units do not have this wire. i may have found a way around this, i'll keep people updated i guess

Give us the wiring diagram that came with the turbo timer. And tell us all what alarm you have, don't keep it secret.
