I have a s1 1997 Nissan Stagea with a HKS turbo timer and a Cyclops (I think) alarm. I thas just started to unlock the doors once the timer for the turbo timer has expired. From then I cannot lock the doors with the remote. Have tried other key fobs and get the same result. If I set the turbo timer to zero I can lock and arm the car as normal.

Not sure where I should start looking as it has always be fault free. I will check all fuses when I get time to rule that out, I just wondered if anyone else had encountered this issue before?

I would prefer to retain the turbo timer as I have an oil cooled only turbo and I tend forget to drive it gently when I get a couple kms from home.

For those that ever run into this issue, the anti hijack function was enabled causing the doors to unlock once the alarm detected the ignition was switched off. Disabled that feature and issue is now resolved.

Quick check with the test light revealed the fuse for 12v socket was no good. Replaced it and checked a few times and everything appears to be back to normal and working as it should. I'll keep an eye on it over the next couple days and see if anything changes

Nah its being a pos. Still has an issue. Cannot seem to work it out. As soon as the turbo timer shuts the car off, it unlocks the doors and I cannot lock the car with the remote again without turning ignition to the on position, but as soon as I turn ignition off, AR unlocks again. So frustrated, even if I manually lock all the doors, as soon as the turbo timer shuts down, it unlocks the doors.

Contacted Dynamco via their Tech email, got a very fast response.

Issue turned out to be a faulty in-line fuse in an independent fuse holder that is part of the alarm loom. There are 2 side by side and the tech even identified the one I should check. Fuse was replaced and now functions as normal.

Old fuse rattles when shaken lightly, did not show continuity and was loosing voltage across it even though it didn't appear bad. One side had 12.53v and the other had 3.86v

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
