Hey guys, I just installed an Innovate LC2 wideband and Im trying to simulate the O2 sensor. I wired everything up as per innovates instructions, and I cut pin 4 going to the ECU and attached the BROWN wire on the LC2 controller to it. Car starts and runs BUT it's not entering closed loop because the O2 is not cycling. Its staying at .8V constantly. :confused: I tried searching with no luck... Can someone please review my log and see if I'm missing something?

Anyone?

Since you have link and simulating narrowband, you should not be connecting the brown wire to any ECU pin. We use the brown wire when we dont have software such as link to simulate narrowband.

Connect the yellow wire to your #4 pin on the ECU and tape up and secure your brown wire.

If you're confused by my reasoning refer to this page as these wideband sensors utilize the exact same installation method:

mtxinstall [ECMTuning - wiki]

Got it. The brown wire is .1 to 1v signal which doesnt need to be simulated, and the yellow is the actual 0 to 5v signal which needs to be simulated. It's all good to go, now the only other thing is figuring out what's the switching voltage on the wb. For the lc1 it's 2.43v but nowhere do they mention the lc2

You'll come to find that all Innovate Wideband sensors will all utilize a 2.43-2.45 switch point. Anywhere in that range will be acceptable.
