I think it has a big freaking MAZDA sticker on it.

yeah holy crap how the hell did you guy twist up like a pretzel to get up there man im a huge guy like 275 lb LOL and 6ft i like to never get up in there to cut the ties off the end to get it out. geezus. whatever you do DO NOT set switch one to on, its just freaking annoying it ur car will make a double beep when you use the remote to lock it. twick two does set the alarm not 30 seconds but one miniute after the ignition is off. vega if you could find out what 3 and 4 do that'd be sweet id like to change it to 30 seconds if possible, and just curious what the 4th one does. Thanks for the info now i can go on without worrying about my car being left on cuz of the ebrake adn then the alarm sets 1 min after tt shuts off. great info guys

lil bit off topic but it seems like its hella work just to get the alarm to cooperate with any turbo timer.... so if u get an aftermarket alarm system... do u have to go through the same thing too? or u can finally use a remote to lock the car while the TT cooling down the car?

not in the msp anyways, i-am-chris i believe was the one that sent me a pm telling me the ebrake wouldn't work in our car. if it does pls correct me and i'll go put it on.

no i just said i was lazy and havent hooked it up

i am chris

LOL chris it really wasn't that bad hooking up the three wires and the ebrake the pain in the ass is the ecu, everyoen is like oh yeah just pop off the foor bolts and take the floor pan off

LOL chris it really wasn't that bad hooking up the three wires and the ebrake the pain in the ass is the ecu, everyoen is like oh yeah just pop off the foor bolts and take the floor pan off but what they dont tell ya is that the ecu is attached to the floor pan by 2 brackets they also fail to mention you cant flip it over to get to the bolts so you have to hold it up hope ur rachet is on the bolts to get them off its even worse trying to put it back together LOL. i just hope my profect b boost controller wont have to deal with the ecu.

another tip to make it easy, you can get these things in walmart in the automotive section called a line tap, basically its a clamp that goes over the wire cuts into the cover then you crimp this slider peice on the wire you want to splice into the line and instead it just slides onto the clamp kinda like a plug. it holds it nice and tight and works good, but it will only work on the e brake and the ecu wire 58 becuz those wires aren't as big of a guage wire as the ones under the steering colum. unless you could find larger line taps then that might work. i didn't see any tho.

goodluck getting it working chris its really not that bad and totally worth it once its all hooked up.

Britt: Try disconnecting the horn and putting a 12V lamp in its place. Then the alarm just lights up the lamp. Quiet testing for the neighbors.

that 2nd switch dont arm the alarm. it just makes the alarm LED blink. at least thats what happened when i tried to set off my alarm...

How did you try to set it off. If you just manually unlock the doors it wont go off. You have to actually open the door with the alarm set. Or you could use your key on the trunk.

I think you should all go out and buy a compustar alarm system with the TT in it, and hook it up.....then tell me how you did it, take lots of pics too cause I gotta hook mine up when my speed gets here

 

[JDM Sam]

i shut the door and banged on the window and tried pullin on the rims didnt even make a sound

OK, I use to install alarms and several years ago I did one for a friend of mine who had a 86 Supra. He had a Greddy Full Auto Timer and a Viper 300 Plus Alarm. I haven't done one in a while but I will play around with my wiring next weekend when I get back from Cape May. There is a way to arm the alarm as normal even though the car is still counting down on the timer. I'll let everyone know as soon as I can.

I already posted that info earlier in another thread.

[tekkie]

Britt were you able to get the proximity sensor to engage in any way? right now I just flipped the switch 2 like you said. I have not tested the proximity but from what I read in this post it did not work correct?

 

[Ryan]

switch two does nothing but arm the alarm 1 min after the tt shuts the car off.

Towards the bottom I offer another suggestion.

Never mind, can't get the link to work. Here it is:

"You really want to know how to do it?

1. Get a five pole single throw BOSCH relay.

2. Pin 87a goes to nothing

3. Pin 87 goes to the alarm's 12v ignition input

4. Pin 85 goes to ground

5. Pin 86 goes to 12v output of the Turbo Timer

6. Pin 30 goes to 12v switched ignition.

7. Then there is a wire that goes from the Turbo Timer output to the ignition, but it has to have a diode with the anode (not the cathode) towards the key side of the switch on the far side of the splice to the relay from the Turbo Timer's output.

Make sense?

Britt

As always, verify all connections with a DVM."

yeah you can do it that way if you like wiring stuff up, im fine with the second dipswitch im getting a better alarm in like 3 days so no biggy.

 

[RYuReady]

I know this is a super old thread, but it's better then starting a new one.

So I'm confused...

Does this second dipswitch thing actually arm the alarm 1 min after engine shuts off?

or

Does is only the alarm LED starting blink but the alarm is not armed?

Pin 85 needs to be going to the other side of the turbo timer. that way u don't ground your tt's igniation.

you know u can use a 4 pin for this too...

Also one other know make sure u get an amp that can hold at least 10 amps
