Open a window to watch O2 voltage. Do you get a viable reading? The LC1 is known to have the AD converter die. The gauge will still read because it's driven digitally. If you get a constant voltage output, the converter is dead. Innovate will fix them. Your best bet would be to toss it though and upgrade to a better unit.

The other thing to check, if you get a viable voltage reading, is that the calibration between the LC1 and Haltech jive.

So what ur saying is the lc1 is most likely the problem. Coz my buddy droped my ecu when I first got it and I was hoping it wasn't coz of that. I will check it ASAP but I'm in the process of pulling and tearing apart my engine.

Have you confirmed it's an issue with the Innovate?

Pretty much anything else. My favorite budget wideband was the NGK AFX. But ECM no longer produces them for NGK and the jury is still out on the new unit, IMO. Ballenger has continued to offer what was the NGK AFX as their AFM500. That would still be my first choice. http://www.bmotorsports.com/shop/pro...oducts_id/2337 The Haltech wideband is great. PLX is good. AEM works well but eats sensors more than the others.

I think I figured it out. I didn't know it was a shielded wire coming from the Haltech and I hooked it up to the shielding lol
