I've had my Greddy timer for a good 3 years now and for some reason it has always had a little glitch in it. Every once in a while it would power off then back on when I clicked my turn signal switch. It's always done this since day one. I never really thought anything of it since a few of my friends all do the same thing. Just recently I noticed it's starting to do it when i put it into reverse? The settings aren't resetting or anything, it's just turning off then back on like it looses power momentarily. It also doesn't seem to cause any problems other than annoying me. Has anyone experienced this before? Is there a fix for this?
 
What wire is it drawing power from? I am curious if there is the chance that when you put more strain on the electrical system the turbo timer cannot draw enough amperage through wherever you wired it. Which could cause it to power down.

Just a thought.
 
I hooked it up using a Greddy harness I got from SB. It's been so long since I installed it I can't really remember how it hooked in. I think the harness just plugged into the factory ignition harness and split power and everything from there.
