AEM Wideband Gauge Install

Once the mid-pipe was reinstalled, the o2 sensor was installed.

Now to the wiring and a gauge pod. I used a door pillar two gauge pod so I could also add a vacuum/boost gauge.

The door pillar trim had to be removed so the wires could be run. There are two harnesses that came with the wideband gauge kit. One goes directly to the o2 sensor and the other is for power and data. The vaccum/boost gauge only needed power and ground from the dash light circuit and a vacuum line to the same line that feeds the FIC.

The dash lights were connected at the center console onto the red/black wire since I already had it out.

The o2 harness wires had to be released from the connector so they could be fished through the firewall.

I used the same hole as the vacuum line for the FIC had been run on the passenger side.

Two holes were needed to hold the pods to the pillar post.

The gauges were installed in the pods. Then vacuum line and electrical wires connected,

Finally, the pods were mounted to the post.

Believe it or not, everything worked...even the face light dimmed with the dash lights!

Update 11/10/2014

I was having a hard time reading the digital gauge since it would change so quickly. However, it did fine for logging data.

My friend Roger suggested I try the analog gauge instead. He pointed out that the needle stays steadier longer and still had the capability of feeding the FIC for logging.

So, I purchased an AEM 30-5130 UEGO Analog Face Wideband o2 Gauge Kit.

I had no trouble installing it since the wiring harness was identical to the one I had already installed. However, I did swap the o2 sensor to be sure it was calibrated correctly. Then I installed the gauge. But, notice this time I moved the o2 gauge to the top. It was the one I wanted to see most.

Again, everything worked!
