Turbo Timer

Just installed a bogaard turbo timer on my 99 model 4.2 GU. The sub tank light on the dash stays on even though the sub tank isnt in use. Wiring was done following instructions. Any ideas why this is happening? Its more annoying than anything else (I hope!!!)

Cheers

Need to wire in both (now is it both "accessories" or both "on").
I forget.
Chucking in my home-made timer did exactly, and I mean exactly what you are describing. Whichever power feed that you grabbed from the ignition, there is another one coming off from behind the ignition barrel switch. Need to do both. Grab a multimeter and check. I wish I could recall which one it was (accessories or on) to help you.

Then drop battery for 30 odd seconds to reset the sub tank circuit, and all should be good.

Cheers for that Bushy555. Just disconnected the terminals on my lunch break and sub tank light is gone and sub tank is functioning as per normal.

...if I get a chance over the next few days I'll try to rip me dash apart and see how I wired it up for ya.
