Innovate wideband

While I know the OP stated that Innovate said not to do this.

It is recommended to let the sensor warm-up, NOT THE CAR. You will need to wire the LC-1 into a ignition source, many people use the fuel pump relay. So once you turn the key to the accessory position the LED will begin to flash, once it stops flashing & steadily lit (sensor warmed-up) you then start the car.

It's not a bad Idea thought if you are using narrow-band simulation to ignore the sensor for the first 30 seconds on start up... At least that's what I do.

I missed this yesterday... An figure to avoid confusion it would be good to clarify that this isn't correct.

From the Manual I linked to above...

What do you mean by narrow-band simulation?

And not sure but are you saying that what the OP said is incorrect? The warning that you posted says to not connect to a permanent 12v and start it before the car which is what I said.

What do you mean by narrow-band simulation

V3 Ecmlink and other Engine management systems can use the Wideband for closed loop operation by providing a 0-1v signal Emulating the narrow-band (or other means) an providing a more accurate signal from the W/b.

And not sure but are you saying that what the OP said is incorrect? The warning that you posted says to not connect to a permanent 12v and start it before the car which is what I said.

I wasn't saying you were incorrect I was saying that you already said this.
But, I was providing the info from the manual backing it up...

Oh I see, on both counts. Thank you

Thanks for correcting me on that, for whatever reason I thought I remember reading in the manual that you were supposed to let the sensor warm-up before starting the car but I believe I was thinking of the calibration section. This whole time I've been letting the sensor warm-up prior to starting the car for no reason, sorry about the mis-info.

I'm just glad we got it figured out as it seems more than a few people thought that.
