Turbo Timer? No idea. Former owner did say it had a turbo timer but it doesn't work. he said he thinks it was a loose wire to the neutral safety switch. anyway, i was wondering if you guys had seen this before and if you know what it is.

it was set to 'off' when i found it under there and i don't remember what the knob was set to.it's in the drivers side footwell stuck on there with adhesive. i have the interior panel that's directly below the steering wheel/column removed.



my only guess is that it is the turbo timer and it doesn't light up or anything or work when i shut the car off because there actually is a loose wire.

thanks guys.

more questions to come.....

*update*: friend's dad says it looks like a subwoofer controller. the car does have an aftermarket 10" sub in the back. crazy!

That Black - Black-White wire does kind of look like inexpensive audio wire. I'd say trace it and see what it hooks up to. The red looks like power, so tracing it wouldn't tell you much (unless it goes to the head unit).

well it's got holes in the plastic for some type of audio sound to vent through. Some kinda weak *** alarm, or interior audio alarm?

I'd pull it...looks like ***.
