Check the fuse for whatever power source you pulled 12v from.

When you jumped did you go straight battery to battery, or did you find a different ground?

Sometimes jumping can fry electrical. Fuses usually pop before the parts break. (except the starter, they sometimes suffer from incorrect jumping)

Fortunately, the turbo timer serves no useful function unless you have a cheapie aftermarket dry-bearing turbo installed.
