How fit my turbo timer ?

[Supratony]

Hello all !!! In a first time sorry for my english but I'm french

I explain my problem, I have bought a Turbo Timer, but impossible to fit it, I don't know, what color put with color of turbo timer.

On my key cylinder, I have five colors :

- red
- black
- black with red stripe
- green
- black and yellow

and on my turbo timer :
- blue
- yellow
- red

I tell you this evening what colors of turbo timer represent.

Someone knows how I can do ? because on French forums nobbody say ... thanks for all

 

[Supratony]

Nobbody says ?

I have more informations :

On the turbo timer :

red : +12V (so red on the key cylinder I think)
blue : ACC (accessory)
yellow : IG ignition

Do you know where I should put the blue and yellow ? Thanks for all.

follow that link and have a read that might clear a few problems up for you

i found it in another thread though after i searched

 

[Supratony]

Thanks for your answer but I have ever tried it yesterday, and it is not good. We have not the same colors in the key cylinder. With these connexions, when I put ff the engine, the TT is off too.

you'll find most don't suggest a turbo timer. in England it would probably invalidate your insurance

also, the Cupras have a Secondary Water pump, which is designed to cool the car after ignition is turned off. So no real need for a Turbo Timer

 

[Supratony]

Yes I have seen it, but since 2 month, nothing noise after turn off the car, si I want really a TT. It is fitted, I need only know who put differents colors of cable...

If France, for insurance, my Cupra is really not stock, so TT or not...

Nobbody knows ?

the red should go to a constant live!

i dont know where your blue will go but im sure u should have instruction as to what type of acc it should go to. also there should be more wires as you have to put one on the handbrake and also on starter motor.

try and find a wiring diagram for the cupra, ask your local dealer or mochanic if they can get one for you.

my turbo timer has 9 wires so i dont know how yours only has 3

 

[Supratony]

Thanks for your answer ! Yes I have more wires ( ground and handbrake), but they are connected. My only is for blue and yellow. I will try to have a wiring diagram at SEAT. I will post picts tomorrow. Thanks

Hello,
No help on turbo timer I am afraid. BUT if your secondary water pump is not working should you not have a look at why? Fuses on top of battery may have blown.

 

[Supratony]

I will see it thanks. Because I don't understand why it is Off. Before, when it was ok, when I put OFF the engine, a sound like tac tac tac tac was since 5 - 10 min, and now, nothing. I will see it

I will take picts of my TT tomorrow

blue from the TT goes into the small green wire on the key cylinder, and the yellow wire from TT goes to the thick black wire on the key cylinder. hope this helps?

 

[Supratony]

MANY THAAAANK I will try it !!!

And for the handbrake, It is 2 wires, an entry and an exit, + and -, It it important where we put it, or no ? Because the handbrake wire of the TT is only one wire, not a + and a -. Thanks

 

[peter_cupra197]

just put the one on the handbrake switch to the earth side when the handbrake is in the up position i have fitted mine so these are definantly the right wires

 

[Supratony]

I don't really understand what you say, sorry but I am french and not really good in english, and the translator on the net is bad...

Con you say it with others words ? (the first part) Sorry...

 

[peter_cupra197]

the wire from the tt goes to - on the handbrake

 

[Supratony]

Lol many thanks peter, I try it tomorrow !!!

 

[peter_cupra197]

if i remember correctly the handbrake is a switched earth (-) so connect it to the side which is earth (-) when the handbrake is on.

If you're lucky the secondary water pump will only have stopped working because of a blown fuse on top of the battery. Good luck

 

[Supratony]

I will take a look on fuse, thanks
