Need an o2 sensor, can I get a WB now?

[darknezz7]

Can I use the bosch 17018 WB sensor to replace the stock front one now without any tuning?

Will it act like a stock sensor basically?

Ours seems to be bad and I'd rather just get the WB now and install a gauge later.

Talks about the gauge as being a controller, but its just reads off the o2 wire to the ecu so I don't think it affects it?

Thanks

I still think you have a connection issue that has been overlooked. At this point maybe contact PLX for additional support.

Well I feel stupid...

Just went and looked over everything, the gauge was plugged into the RX hole instead of the TX...
Plugged it in the right spot and wow it works. Pretty neat gauge I like it, still not started waiting on coolant pipe.

Shows what being tired, having a bad day, getting dark outside and a zip tie covering the hole will do.

thanks 2mits I really appreciate the quick feedback
