APEXi Auto Timer - Wiring Question

[LastTemptation]

yer i looked at it and the thing was earthed.. connected it to my handbrake. and the tt cuts off engine when it is put down..

but i still get the problem, umm i mean some times it works sometimes it dosent. i have had a fun time pulling the bits out but dont want to do it again..

anyway thanks for ur help Danny. what you told me was right with the hbrake. but my mate thinks it is not connected or loose at the ignition, if thats where its meant to be connected what wire would it be?

The ignition wire on the tt is green or blue and connects to the black with red trace on the ignition wiring loom. all the main power connections should be soldered, and probably are not. Pull it apart and check it out.

Hey all,

Ive got the timer but I cant work out where the wiring harness plugs into. Where is the plug it should go into? is it behind all the steering column panels? Do i need to remove all the panels to get to it or is it accessible from underneath?

If you got the adapter, with male and female 6pin plugs, then it would be easier to remove the lower dash panel, and unplug the ignition switch. plug it into your loom then plug the other one into the spare plug on yer new loom. hook the grey wire to the handbrake, yellowey wire under the cup holder. then follow the instructions to hook up earth and white wire to the ECU. use the jap instructions for beter quality pin outs. Hope that makes some sense im draaaained

Hey,

Yeah I have the adapter, wiring harness for r33. So remove the panel aronud the steering column and its under there? I've been trying to find it under that area but wasnt sure if i needed to remove the panel or not.

Thanks for the help

I know that the Brant alarms can be reprogrammed by brant themselves to work with a turbo timer. Its really easy.

my 2cents

Yes Brant have said this. But is it possible to program them without taking it to brant and paying the $35 to "flick a switch" as they put it to me. Danny , do you know about these?

Sewid,

Speak to dennis or dom at brant they were pretty helpful and didnt charge me anything.
