Thanks

The rear sensor should have only one signal line. Make sure you didn't mistaken the front sensor wires.

Here's the pinout diagram on scoobymods:

Like kalasend said, it's the rear O2 signal wire, there's no negative, I think it grounds through the ECU. Keep in mind, these pinout diagrams are looking at the end of the wire harness that plugs into the ECU. So to locate the correct wire, remove the second big plug from the left (I think...just match up the blank spots to confirm), look at the side of the connector that actually connects to the ECU, NOT the side that the wires come out of, to locate the appropriate wire. And double or triple check it against the color code listed at the bottom of the diagram. Do yourself a favor and don't cut any ECU wires, go to the auto parts store and get some vampire clips...just tell the guy you want to splice into a wire without cutting it, they should know what you need.

If you need any more help, PM me. I just did this last week.

I read that you can cut a specific wire to allow the alarm system to arm while the turbo timer is keeping the car on idle. can anyone tell me where i may find directions to do this?

That depends, do you have the factory alarm? If you do have it then go here and see #13 and #14:

If you have an aftermarket alarm, you're in the same boat that I'm in. The wiring is different on my alarm and the guy who installed it still hasn't figured out which wire I should be cutting. So now, I either have to wait for my car to shut down or not activate my alarm at all

Good luck

I got my apexi turbo timer as well... I am getting confused on a couple things. With my HKS turbo timer harness it came with a wierd looking wire that connects to the ebrake and timer... although on the actual timer itself it has three wires, one to the ebrake, one to the ground and one to the o2 censor... ?

For those three wires to I connect the O2 AND the ground, or only the o2 into the ECU?

I just want to double check because I have NEVER done anything like this at all... the whole thing scares me but as long as I have ALL of the info I don't mind it taking me 4+ hours to do! I just want it do work correctly.

Thanks,
