I just got my LC2 installed today. I have it installed in the o2 housing, obviously replacing the stock front o2 sensor. I wired up the wideband using these guidelines:
Red wire 12v accessory power source (e.g. cigarette lighter or radio)
Blue wire chassis ground
White wire - ECU sensor ground (pin 92)
Brown split between DB gauges white wire and ECU pin 75 (ECU Pinout - http://www.dsmlink.com/images/forums/2GECUPinout.pdf)
Yellow ECU pin 76 (ECU Pinout - http://www.dsmlink.com/images/forums/2GECUPinout.pdf)
Black Calibration push button to monitoring LED to ground
There aren't any white or blue wires on the LC2, so I just wired the ones that I did have.
I'll say now that I did not calibrate the sensor like I should have. It's quite a hassle to remove my o2 housing while everything is bolted on the car, and I accidentally put everything back together without calibrating the sensor in open air. I saw several other forums said that if the car hasn't been started in over 24 hours then the sensor can be calibrated while still in the exhaust. I'm not sure how true that is, but my car had been off for over 24 hours so I tried it.
I also don't have a rear o2 sensor hooked up currently. I assume that might contribute to my problem.
When the car is idling, my AFR is around 7.5-8. When I stab the thottle, the highest number I see is around 10.5.
The car is also idling pretty rough, but will stay running.
My question is:
Do I need to do anything in EcuFlash or anywhere else to get my LC2 to simulate a narrowband properly? Also, is my method of calibration the reason I'm idling extremely rich?
Thanks
