Hey guys
This is my first post and first Navara. I have owned a few 4wds in my few years of loving off road 4x4. Im only 27, so many more years to come. Im a frequent user of the Patrol4x4 and 4wd action forums. I have owned a 03 Triton, 04 Hilux, 02 3.0 GU Patrol and my last baby, 2004 GU4 Patrol STL 4.8 manual with a bit of work done. Almsot 200kw and 500nm.
Introduction aside, I need your help in installing my ebay turbo timer. I couldn't resist the $50 price tag, compared to a Boggard for $250. I wasn't willing to pay an extra $200 for plug and play wiring.
Below are a few picture aids. I soldered the (turbo timer)
t/t red to the red 12v
t/t black to black ground
t/t blue to IGN1
t/t green to IGN2
The t/t comes on with accessories and I am able to scroll through the various functions, but it wont let me change the settings (idle time etc). The dodgey chinese instructions state the parking brake must be on before entering the settings mode.
Has anyone had any luck installing one of these timers or one similar?
(ps. I have used the search function and there is a similar thread which I followed but didnt help.)
UPDATE - SOLVED
I finally got it working after trying a few different combinations.
t/t red to 12v (thick red and white stripe)
t/t black to ground
t/t green to red (ignition)
t/t blue to black and white stripe (accessories)
t/t grey to ground (hand brake sensor)
