Hey guys today i was an idiot...
Well just now i was fitting a turbo timer to my car and loosely connected the contacts to test it...silly mistake. The turbo timer lit up and worked great then the handbrake sensor wire shorted and now the turbo timer wont light up and the car wont start.. Just makes this whiring noise from the very front of the car. I have tried removing the turbo timer harness and starting the car and it still wont work.
What have i blown up in the electrics? Hopefully just a fuse.. which ones should i be checking? can anyone point me in the right direction? I would be really grateful as i need to get to work the in the morning
Thanks
Joe
Check all the fuses in the front and the back and i think under the where the fog light switch is i think theres some fuses under there aswell.
You will see when a fuse is blown because the metal thing inside pops out.
looked in the frunk and found one blown fuse : AM2 don't know what its for but ill go out and get some fuses now. Just got to hope this fixes the car AND the turbo timer Ill check see if any more have gone..
Thanks for you help guys, i paniced that i had done something serious... The AM2 fuse got the car going again
HOWEVER when i try connecting the turbo timer it blows the AM2 fuse when i go to start it? Have i fried my TT?
