so, i was installing my greddy full auto turbo timer, and got it all working, and it counts down great, but can't seem to figure out how to lock the doors and have the turbo timer cycle down.....at the end of the cycle, the turbo timer "unlocks" the doors.....i have the factory upgraded alarm system, and it seems to unlock the doors when it reaches "0" sec....any suggestions or does the factory upgraded alarm system not have the capacity to tap into the turbo timer?

I have no clue about the turbo timer with the factory alarm to be honest, but I can help you out with a small bit of info.

If the timer unlocks the doors and no one opens any of the doors (hatch included), they will lock again in 30 seconds. This could be a problem if someone tries to steal your car within 30 seconds of when it turns off, but otherwise you should be OK.

 

i have the same problem... lol.. knowing this, i wonder if the next time someone hears a car running with noone inside... if theyll stick around... lol.. hope not.

 

so when the turbo timer cycles down, i open the doors to get out.....the tt tries to unlock the doors like you just turned off the car....i'll try getting out and seeing if the doors automatically lock.....thanks though

 

bump.....

 

You turn off the car (the turbo timer keeps it on) you get out and close the door. 2 minutes later, the turbo time turns off the car and the alarm thinks it was you turning off the car and then unlocks the doors. 30 seconds later, the car should automatically lock the doors as long as no one has opened either door or the trunk.

Is this not happening?

 

thats what were talking about.... once its shut off and the doors unlock... someone standing by ... waiting for it.. =o)

 

yeah, doors don't lock after 30 seconds.....i know i have the alarm system and all.....any way to make it so i can lock the doors at least while the turbo timer is counting down....cause right now, i just have to wait for it to cycle down, and then lock the doors with the alarm....

 

theres a pretty good article in Import Tuner i believe a month back or so about what you can do while your waiting for it to countdown... lol.. pretty funny

 

thats in super street

 

ah... lol one of the two.. i read both

 

Anyone figure this out yet?I'm running into the same problem.I can't lock the doors through my stock keyless entry or activate my DEI python alarm until the car shuts itself off.

 

what i do is manually lock the door when i step out of the car... it still unlocks for about 30secs, but then relocks....

 

i just wait by my car and have it cool down and then lock it.

 

If I have to wait there,that defeats the purpose of the turbo timer.I might as well just manually let the car cool down and then shut it off myself.
