POS brand new TT just turns off with car?!?!?

Well heres my issue.. I have a turbo timer with the harness and the piece of **** just turns right off with the car and doesnt count down.. if i turn the key to accesory it will do a proper countdown and then shut off.. but when key is turned all the way off it just shuts the car off...

yes i have the ebrake hooked up..
this is my 2nd TT not sure whats goin on i checked the ground and made shure everything was plugged in properly..

i know i know their stupid and this is a stupid question trust me i feel retarded for making this post but its really pissin me off i cant figure it out

Suggestions/or fix please!!

Theres a harness that plugs right in theres not really a way to hotwire it wrong.. its a plug and play..

im thinking that maybe theres a proccess or cycle u have to do when first turning it on? anyone.

I have a blitz dtt and it turns on when I turn the car on and counts down when I take the key off so there is no need to do anything different then I would normally do. Did you buy your tt from a a reputable source. There are fake turbo timers floating around, especially on ebay.
