when i connect when +/- to the ash tray light and i turn on my parking lights (1 notch) the meter goes all the way to the top of rich but when i try to connect the oxygen sensor the whole thing just turns off and when i turn my car on when its turning over the meter is 2 bars in all the way lean but once the engine turns on the meter goes out.. im suppost the tap a wire from the PFC the only tottaly black wire in the whole PFC right? and can i use any wire becuase thats what i did and i tested the wire and it works

whats going on?

 

Hook it directly up to the Oxygen Sensor wire in the engine bay.

 

i need a pic of where it is
anyone have one?

 

and the manual said not to directly connect the o2 sensor to the air/fuel meter

 

Do it like this...I just installed mine with no prob. I however didn't have a light wire but it might help as to which wire to use out of the harness

Sensor install

 

that exactly what i did!
thats the directions i followed

 

any pics?

 

haha...guess that dont help you much then. I dont have any pics.... no digi cam.

what happens if you leave the light wire disconnected?

 

it needs power to operate so thats why i have to have the power hooked up

 

Oh you don't have a light wire on your gauge(white wire)? If thats the case, you don't need to hook it to the ashtray light.... hook it into your fuse block near the top... there is a open ignition power terminal there you an use... make sure you have an inline fuse as well on that wire

 

its the 02 wire that isn't working thats why i need a opic

 

I'll see if I can get one tomorrow(my bud has a digital cam).... found my o2 wire right away. Is there even another wire that is black on the 16 pin connector? Is your o2 sensor new? I had to rplace mine. It was intermittently working... installed a NTK 21000 and now shes all good. It wont read right until it is at operating temp....

 

read your messages, i sent you a picture

 

the NTK or stock wont read right until it is at operating temp?

 

i don't know if i fixed it or not you know how the autometer air/fuel guage is suppost to do the "happu dance" well mine dosn't do it )-:

just when i turn the ignition on it stays at the bottom 2 bars on lean is that normal?

and then when i drive it, my guage never goes into the green is that normal for a car with a large port engine with stock injectors and stock turbos (yeah yeah i know my next upgrade is my rail and injectors)

Here what i got right now---------

Street Large Port 13b engine

Factory twin turbo setup converted to non-seq pushing 10psi till i get bigger injectors

Unorthodox lightweight engine pulleys

Blitz turbo intake {cold air conversion in the making}

Koyo Rad

2002 Skyline R34 Front Mount Intercooler (FMIC)

Heat wrapped Downpipe

Midpipe

Greddy Type-S BOV

stock muffler

HKS type-1 turbo timer

PowerFC ECU

Autometer A/F meter

Autotechnics Boost guage with burnt out bulb i guess

 

lol i meant happy dance

 

coola i fixed it
i guess it was in learning mode kinda like the PFC
yay!
