turbo timer being weird

hi lads, i had engine out to forge and now all back together and everything seems ok slight knock but dont think its an issue?

when driving down road and change down a gear slowly like a grandad when the revs drop to around 1k the turbo timer switches off then comes straight back on???

its not dropping below 1k revs so could it still be a power issue or earth?

another weird thing is i run timer on batt voltage most of the time to keep eye on altenator, when i switch to full beam(brightest) it reads 0.5v on screen and it also does this when i flash lights

any help would be great

Check the voltage at the timer power wires with a multimeter. I am thinking it may not be very good so best to strip the wires back slightly after the connection, then use crocodile clips on the bare wires.
