Default Ok I need some pointers for Turbo Timer install.....please

I want to make sure I understand correctly in reagrds to the E-Brake.

When the E-Brake is up/engaged there is a 12v constant running so the car will continue to run until the timer counts down to zero? When the e-brake is down/disengaged there is 0v and this would cause the car to shut down?

Being that my car is a manual and I would lift up the e-brake before shutting of the ignition , I have no need to mod the e-brake brown wire for the TT , is that correct?


Also if I chose not to solder but instead use T- Tap connectors can someone tell me the write kind/size and anything else I might need if I chose the solderless route?

Default confused now

what do i need to do with the brwon/white wire from e-brake?

i thought the part with the brown/white wire is only necessary if you do not lift/engage the e-brake when parking?

Default its for when you drop the ebrake after pulling the key out

most people don't need it. esp if you have a auto.

Default but thats what i was saying in my original thread

i wont be dropping the e-brake after pulling the key out. Im a manual and will have the e-brake up.

So im pretty sure now I have no need to do anything to the brown wire since i'll have the 12v constant running through it.


The only thing left before I tackle this is to decide if i will solder or not....any thoughts?
