Turbo Timer work with key fob
« on: December 13, 2009, 10:00:26 AM »
I installed a Blitz turbo timer on my car yesterday. But I have a small problem my key fob will not lock while the car is still running. I found one site that says

If you have a Subaru Alarm:

Similar to the Keyless entry system the Subaru alarm will not arm while the car is running, to disable this simply find the security module and clip the grey wire. The Security module is located next to the e-brake (under the plastic cover and center console storage of course). There is only one grey wire entering this device. Simply clip it and tape off both ends. If you have both Keyless entry and a subaru Alarm you will need to do both of these steps.

I should note that a few people have sited problems with arming the alarm while the car is still running. The problems typicaly entail vibrations from the idling car tripping the center pressure sensor. Many others with alarms have sited no problems.


Then Byron sent me this link http://www.northursalia.com/modifications/drivetrain/tt/tt.html

Just curious which way is the best with out a lot of extra work.

You are correct unless you have a huge turbo set up. I am using mine to warm like an auto car starter. So I don't have to wait ten min and freeze while it warms up after work.
