Pearse Member 21 Member For: 14y 4m 17d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 01/04/11 10:39 AM Share Posted 01/04/11 10:39 AM Ok so I did a couple of tests, stole some power from the igition barrel light and hooked it straight up to the 12v constant at first, turned the key and I got a relay noise from the engine bay then a low pitch beep and the abs light and a hazard light came on the dash, also my stereo now says code when you try turn it on, this is getting bad Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/4946-turbo-timer-thread-merged-topic/page/38/#findComment-1093676 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put the timer on ebay, return your wiring back the way it was, and get on with life.

Pearse Member 21 Member For: 14y 4m 17d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 01/04/11 11:20 AM Share Posted 01/04/11 11:20 AM The first thing I did was return the wiring back to how it was, there is no turbo timer anymore, I still can't start my car, I've checked all fuses twice now, I think it's either alarm related or ecu related, how can I test this? I've removed the negative battery terminal which I read on here "resets" the ecu, not sure how true that is, I've also read of a very similar problem from another member which was just his ignition fuse, I can assure you mine is fine, I really wish I hadn't of attempted it now Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/4946-turbo-timer-thread-merged-topic/page/38/#findComment-1093688 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearse Member 21 Member For: 14y 4m 17d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 01/04/11 12:20 PM Share Posted 01/04/11 12:20 PM Ok will have to borrow a multimeter tomorrow. Are we still stuck on fuses? is it completely out of the question that by shorting out the constant 12v, acc and coil wires, I've triggered an alarm or complete shut out?
