Stan, no worries if this TD module is not correct for my application. All is not lost.  I’ve learned a lot. This has been an interesting thread.

So I was giving this some thought.  If one pin on the micro controller had a pin for delay off maybe there is one for delay on. Sort of a common, normally  open, normally closed function. Maybe I could find a pin out for the chip.  No such luck.  No part number on it. So the next best thing would be to see what I could. Found the pin that drives the output. Pin #1.   I could also see the brief flash on power up on my meter. Had to dust off the old analog meter to catch it.  During the timer cycle pin 1 is 3.3v.  After time out it goes to 0.   Your boot up theory seems correct. Since I was already fooling around with it I went thru the other pins. 5,6,8,9,10 I believe are the dip switch inputs. Shorting pin 3 to 4 turns the light on.  Guess how I figured that out.  I believe 2 and 3 are + and -.  7 the voltage is not always constant. Don’t know what going on there.  11 thru 14 never have anything on them.  Anyhow that’s what I see fooling around with my meter.
