Turbo Timer Install Help

I Just Installed A Blitz Dc Iv T.t. Into My '06 Mr. I Admit I Got A Lil Excited So I Was Stupid And Only Tested If It Turned On/off And The Boost Gauge Feature Of The T.t. Before Putting Everything Back Together. Good News Features Worked, Bad News It Dont Turbo Time My Car. Im Hoping Thats Its Just The Vampire Clip To The E-brake That May Be Loose So That I Dont Have To Take The Steering Column Apart. Is My Assumption Correct, Could It Be So Simple? If Not, Any Ideas Are Welcome. Thanx In Advance.

if you used a wiring harness and all connections are secure I would check the ebrake cut off wire. If that dont work you might have a defective product, the TT only has the harness conection and the ebrake conection.

Correct, there is only 1 wire that goes to Ebrake. If you got the harness like you said, install is simple. gl

Just ground the ebrake wire. That's all it takes besides the harness.

You could try... shutting them off before taking the key out of the ignition?
Seriously, I don't know. I don't bother with a TT in the Evo. I had that same one in my 2G though...

Not hard at all. Just search on here for the place to tap the source and run the hose. Then you just plug it into the back of the TT.
