HKS Turbo Timer

Post by ParkerNorris » Sat Jun 09, 2007 10:09 pm

Whilst threading a set of wires from my leisure battery to the fuse box (corblimey style), I removed the panel below the steering column and out fell a HKS Turbo Timer.

I never knew it was fitted...

Have you tried this site for your instructions HKS Europe Failing this you could contact them to give them your Turbo Timer details and they may have an archive to refer to. My turbo timer has a Perm 12v supply, and can be removed without leaving a "gap" in the loom, not a hks though but would imagine most will operate in the same manner. No drawings or other details though

After reading a few posts on here about the legality of their use (on an unattended vehicle), I decided to remove it.

It seemed to have it's own 'plug in' point in the loom under the steering column, rather than a 'break' in the loom. Just unplugged it, tied the empty socket out of the way; engine seems to start and stop perfectly OK...

If i remember correctly mine plugs straight into the bongo loom and it makes no difference whether in or out. The only times it gets used are after a heavy drive then just set it for a couple of minutes while we get everything sorted out that we need. Dont know if it is doing it any good, but what the hell it is hardly likely to harm it.
