Narrowband O2 sensor install?
Please, no one say I should have a wideband and lecture me about all that. I know widebands are used for tuning and etc, but my 89' Turbo II is just a daily driver.
Does anyone know what wire to wire the gauge into from what pin on this ECU?
Please PM me or copy paste my pics and circle what pin. Thanks.

It is in the FSM for your particular year of car. Should take you 5 minutes to find.

It is in section 4b I believe.

So another question here...
I followed the diagram, pretty easy, but I have no response from my gauge. It lights up and everything. Needle doesn't move though.
From the diagram below it should be 2C right? or am I wrong? Please give feedback.

Yeah, you may have mis-identified the wire though. The wire on pin 2C should be black.

IF the 02 sensor is actually good and connected up, then at idle it won't show squat or much of anything IF the car has a functional airpump and ACV.
I'd get a meter out and backprobe the 2C..........................no, forget that.......... I'd go to the 02 sensor itself and disconnect it from the harness. Then with a meter probe the output of the 02 sensor with the engine running and see what the reading is. Should be b/t 0.0vdc to 0.9vdc. Rev the engine and see if it changes. OR if the airpump and ACV are functional, then remove the blue connector off the relief solenoid. The 02 output should now read approx 0.5vdc to 0.8vdc.
