Default flippy turbo timer

When i put on my turn signal either way, put it in reverse, turn on rear defrost, headlights,.. anything -
this greddy timer will turn off then back on. its not every time, justa random thing.
sometimes when the cooling fans come on it does it too. anything that cases a quick drop in volts as it comes on. any ideas? this timer once got stuck on, no LCD, the blue lights were on and the car stayed running. i had to unplug it to get it to shut off cuz the buttons wouldnt do anything.
im thinkin its a piece of **** just like the last one i had.

Mine starts out there when i first start it up, then if i rev it at idle, as the rpm drops it will drop 2 about 11 or below and almost die. I assume its either tha battery or altenator......the belt is sqeeling extremly loud under tha hood now 2....

Sounds like the timer is going bad since it's intermittent and not a constant issue. I have a Greddy FATT and I'm hoping it won't start doing crazy things like that, lol.
It might just be old, beat up, and ready to be put to rest, lol.

it sat in a car hooked up for a year, but the car never got drove - never had an engine, its basically brand new other than being hooked up with no battery and sitting there. done it since i put it in my car, it was free what do ya expect.
i threw the last one out the window, this ones next.
