turbo timer issue... HELP!!!

im having an issue with my greddy turbo timer. recently my battery got disconnected somehow, so i put the battery terminal back on and car started up again, no problem. but now my turbo timer isnt working and it shows some wierd symbol or number when its on, and none of the buttons are working but its on its just showing this... 0_0, or something very close to that on the sceen. i tried to reset it but it wouldnt work, since none of the buttons are working except on/off. i really need your help on this.
thanks

Did you check all of the wiring on the T/T?

yes it seems to be plugged in. i think it might be running to low a circuit and not be getting enough power to have the TT work correctly. please keep helping me though

if you have the harness unplug it and plug it back in. if that doesn't work check to make sure it has a good ground. if that doesnt work you could have burnt up the components in the TT casing somehow.

The black wire.. Try disconnecting and wait 5 min, then plug it back in like another member above said.

A search for 'Greddy turbo timer error codes' reveals a bunch of threads at other forums with people asking the same question though I couldn't find any with an answer.

Wasn't able to find anything in the manual but you should re-check all your wiring to ensure it is to spec: http://greddy.com/upload/file/FATT.pdf

If that doesn't work, email tech@greddy.com.

Well.... I didn't find any info on error codes, but I found somebody with the same issue with a Volvo and said they fixed it by holding the p and the s buttons, or the p and the t..... here's a link

http://volvospeed.com/vs_forum/topic...o-timer-error/

Gonna try this when I get home.

UPDATE: Put a new battery in and the turbo timer worked perfectly! The old battery didn't have enough juice or a good enough connection to power the turbo timer to work right! I know it's strange but it works now!
