I'm fitting my A/F ratio meter today and according to the How-To the wire to the Lambda that carries the signal is the black one. Looking at the loom there are white, brown, black and brown/black wires to the sensor. Could someone please confirm that it is the black wire and not the brown and black wire that I need to pick up my signal.

Cheers.

pretty sure I hooked into the black for mine

why not just rig up a temporary connection and fire up the car to see if the meter works?

Thanks Nige, I'll report back.

Ah, no joy there. A flicker of a couple of red LEDs then nothing.....

There should be 2 white wires for the lambda, which are heaters wires shouldnt there? So maybe your wiring is different, hence the black is different?

Thanks Ross, all sorted now.

What one was it?

Ross

It was the Black one attached to the Lambda itself, not the one that's part of the car loom.

Coolios

Ross

It's annoying that isn't it, when the wires change colour between the car and sensor looms.

Very!

and your result, please?

I'm considering buying this AF gauge from Autometer:

They say the you might need part 2244, which is an oxygen sensor kit from Autometer. This one:

Do I need to order this sensor kit also? Or do you connect the gauge to the original sensor, that is located in the first pipe of the exhaust? (right after the turbo?)

It looks like it should run off the original sensor. Just split the circuit and add it in.

It works

ross, what afm do you have? AEM wideband?

Ross has an Innovate wideband

i was thinking of getting one, either aem or innovate. are thay easy to set up and use (diy) or does it need to done by a professional, so to speak??

(sorry to thread hijack! )

I have an AEM permanently installed in a dual pillar pod. You would need to get a second boss welded into your downpipe that's all.

cool, already have one, downpipe came like it from H&S, just before where the cat / de cat pipe is,

thanks flea. (again! lol)

Yeah i have my wideband in my single pillar pod. Very easy to install and can add a log to the laptop...
