hey guys

i got a greddy full auto turbo timer, it turns on and you can utilise all its features but all of a sudden today, it wont count down when you turn the car off. it has the time ready to go but just wont count?

any ideas y? or is it just easier to get an auto elec to look at it?

cheers

yeh it on the hand brake. if u drop it normally when the timer was working it shut the car off instantly. if the hand brake wasnt on when the car was turned off it would beep for like 5secs then shut off.

so have you done anything to the car to cause this?

on the blitz ones there is a switch on the rear that sets the IGN input. if you have knocked that then you end up with your problem. FATT should have one as well.

ok guys,

had a muck around with thetimer and still no rectification of the issue. could the relay that allows the alarm to arm while car running have blown or similar and thus cause the issue?

yeh hand brake sensor in tact. took it to an auto elec and determined that the timer was at fault. had power and all that but when you went to turn the car off, the ignition plug just gave a flash of light on his tester instead of a constant stream, almost like the timer was rejecting the power supply. he had a fiddle and to save some stress i just went and bought a cheap 1 from super chaeap and im gonna hunt around again for another greddy timer.

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
