ok so the common problem people have with c34 stageas and turbo timers is when the lights are on auto and the turbo timer is on and u get out the lights dont turn off even when u open the door you must wait till the car shuts down then open and close the door very anoying.

The easiest fix is put a relay on the earth wire {black wire} to the auto lights module behind the instrument cluster and hook it up to the ignition so when the turbo timer shuts down the lights go out no matter what. i wired mine up that way 1 week ago and works great.

i even covered the sensor on the dash with a black sticker so the lights are always on when i am driving looks better and safer

parts needed 5 pin relay

female spade terminals and crimper

screwdriver

test light or multimeter

relay pin 30 cut earth wire from auto light module

pin 85 ignition

pin 86 earth

pin 87a other side of cut auto light wire

have fun

Yep the cluster needs to come out and the box is just behind it held with one screw I don't have a photo of the relay that I put in but just get a normal automotive change over relay and follow my instructions and u can't go wrong

Weird I've never been in one with out it.... (Been in over 10)

Personally I wouldn't put tape over the light sensor on the dash either as this is also used by the climate control unit.

The sensor on the Passenger side is for the climate control, driver's side, auto lights.

    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.

    • PROBLEM WAS BROKEN COOLANT SENSOR!!! Replaced with a new one and its running mint.
    • I think he was only proposing to use the wire, not the sender. Simply because it runs from the right place to the right place. Personally, I wouldn't hack up the factory wiring like that. I'd just lay in the Defi loom.
