MTX-L Install

[Zufelt]

Alright, I just got my wideband in the mail and figured it would be straight forward.. Unfortunately for me it's not. I understand that the wires are

Red - Ignition Wire 12v

White - Is to dim the light, which I'll be grounding instead

Black- Ground wire

Yellow- Analog out 1

Brown- Analog out 2

I just can't figure out where in the ECU pins can I put the yellow and brown? I don't have DSMlink, but do plan on using it within the next couple months. So would the yellow still go at the 76 pin? I am creating a new bung for the sensor, and would like to use it's datalog features.

Unfortunately the information isn't on Vfaq and is somewhat confusing.. any help would be greatly appreciated

This site is helpful, but not sure if it would be the same being that I don't have DSMlink yet. Also, instead of tapping into the pin, can I just tap into the wire before the harness that goes to that specific pin? Perhaps that's what everyone means and I'm just taking it to literal. I also don't want to tap into any other sensors such as the back because it's needed for emission purposes. Thanks for any info, I know it should be an easy install but I have a habit for overthinking things..


EDIT: Since I don't have anything to LOG with, and I don't need to simulate a narrowband for the ECU would I just hook up the sensor and it would read my Air/Fuel while I wait to buy DSMlink?

use a t tap, thats what i did worked fine. where are you placing wideband? you can wire the brown to the front o2 since that simulates narrowband and then a tap wideband to rear o2 to log it.

edit: yes tap into the wire going into it

edit2: just read your part about rear o2, maybe someone else can chime in with a solution

Since you don't need to log anything at the moment and aren't replacing your front o2 sensor with the wideband, you don't need to send any wires to the ECU.

When you do get around to hooking it up, you can follow the list of available inputs here.

Haha, thanks guys.. suppose my brain couldn't climb the obstacle for a minute there..
