hi,where is the best place to buy a wide band lambda Sensor?

thanks

???

Do you already have a WB controller and just need a replacement sensor or do you need the whole kit?

the whole kit I guess as it just a standard sensor on the car at the min..... i have got a ait/fuel ratio gadge ready to be fitted

thanks

The Innovate LC1 is the kit to get if you already have a gauge.

I have been told not to get 1 off ebay as they wont last long ?

Absolute rubbish, whoever told you that don't know how to use it.

It's in the UK your link is USA, long waiting times and then hit by customs just to save £25.

after owning an Innovate, i personally went for AEM wideband, has the accuracy of the Innovate but also looks a bit more tasty, maybe a little to "chavy" for some users, but its features have a use

I have the AEM too, I did a post a while back asking for advice on which to go for. The innovate range seemed more adaptable in that you can buy add on bits etc and get really technical, I just wanted something of decent quality and think the AEM looks nice and does what it should........ also I got it cheap!

Both use the same Bosch wideband sensor. It’s only the gauge and the controller that is different. jordanjones1987 already has a gauge so its only the sensor and controller box that is needed. I think the Innovate is far better as Logworks is far more advanced that AEM's basic software.

@ sterrick what have you noticed different that the AEM can do over innovate?

i thought it was just a sensor? so i can have a perfect reading on my air/fuel ratio gadge?

thanks for the info so far

No, just a wideband sensor is no good on its own without a controller box to give the 0-5V reference. You already have a display gauge but there needs to be a controller between the gauge and the WB sensor. The Ebay link I showed you; that little rectangle box that the sensor plugs into which looks like an extension lead is in fact the controller box. I suggest you read the manual its worth reading anyway:

so just to confirm i need a contoller box wideband sensor and a air/fuel ratio gadge?

thanks

are the wideband sensors universale? and do anyone know where to get a controller box from?

is this the controller ?

Thanks

No that's a hand held LM-1 (which is discontinued BTW) this is all you need if you already have a WB gauge.

The WB sensors are usually Bosch but they put different connectors on the end so even though Innovate & AEM use the same sensor the plugs are different so you cannot interchange. Just take my advice and get the one in the listing above.

when you say the list above.... what list ? the link above ? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Innovate-LC-1-Wide...=item4cec554b2c

should I buy the one on ebay from the link you just sent me?

I just want to check as i want to make sure it is the right one!

thanks

By listing he means link

Steve

YES or

if i buy the above will that come with everything i need to connect my air/fuel ratio gadge up to it? or will i need a controller? (sorry if i souund stupid) i just didnt know anything about all this as i thought once i got the gadge it could just be connected up......

thanks

i have a feeling that jordanjones1987 currently has a narrowband guage but wants to convert it to wideband by changing the sensor. if that is the case i dont think it will work as most narrowband guages use an input range of 0-1V whereas the wideband control boxes usually use a 0-5V range?

We are going round in circles

The kit above has EVERYTHING you need EXPECT the gauge. If your gauge in NOT a WB gauge then you need to buy one or get the kit below.
