Unhappy problem with greddy turbotimer

Hi guys!

I've installed my turbotimer yesterday in my TII S4 1987...

so, i have a nice problem

i've turned the ignition to the "on" position and take a ohm meter to check where i have +12 volt when ignition is on...

i've found it and installed the TT...

so, now when i turn off the car, my motor shuts off and my radio stays on 4 the cooldown time lol

so i've taken the wrong wire right?

i've connected the ACC to the blue wire (+5 Volt), the +12 Volt to a permanent 12volt source ... and one to the wire described above...

but i only have one wire where i've +12 volt with ignition one !?!? :/

If I remmeber correctly, black is constant 12V from the battery, and black with white stripe is 12V ignition at the switch. But you can easily verify this by checking the wiring diagrams in the Haynes or factory service manual.

i don't give much on color codes!

mine are completly different as the color code mentioned in another thread

so the hard way...

i think i've done it false cause...

i've taken the wire where i have +12V when the ignition is on...
is there a cable were are +12V when the ENGINE is on?

because when i turn the key to "ignition" my TT starts, when i turn it off it count's

but whenn i start the engine, the TT starts / stops / starts and then it don't count!

is this the right way of thinking?

I dont know the steps involved with installing it without the harness, but from what I hear they are universal so you can use whatever you can find

also if you do get the harness its one of the most simple installations you could do that ou might find here
