Re: Turbo timer killing the car

I kind of like the idea of setting a timer on the car and letting it count down till shut off so that I wouldn't have to sit in the car till it shuts off to let the turbo cool down. Before I had the tt, I hated sitting in the car for even just a few seconds to let it "cool down the turbo", especially when I'm in a hurry.

I do agree.... I love my HK$ TT. And I also have the plug and play harness too. I think I grounded it on the ground screw for the radio. Its been many years since I had it. hahaha I think its purple! Oh and a cop asked me if that was my NOS controller!

Well I agree unplug it for a day of driving and see if it acts up again. My Festiva if its hot inside it wont start. I think a Solenoid is going bad on it. Take the starter out and bring it to Autozone and have them test it.

Re: Turbo timer killing the car

That sounds like a battery problem that I had

Car would start fine some days and then not work other days. Took it to one battery place said it was ok and then took it to sears and said it was bad...

It was a Red Top even... I didn't think they went bad

However I replaced the battery with a new sealed battery and fixed my problems.

However if the turbo timer is smashed, just buy another one. It should be easy to unplug it from the harness.
