air/fuel signal?

i just wired up an air/fuel guage. the signal wire was to the passenger side kicker panel there is supposed to be a signal source there (like said on plymouthlaser.com), and it doesn't doesn't seem to be working to good right now. the lights move but it slowly moves up until it reaches the first couple green lights than it stops there. when it reaches the green lights, then it starts to respond to the throtlle a little by the lights moving realllllllllly slow up and down on the stoich section only.

do you guys think its my o2 sensor or should i wire it differently?

Re: air/fuel signal?

try tapping it closer to the ECU. look around, there are diagrams of how and where to do it. Then again, it's kind of a pointless gauge man...

Re: air/fuel signal?

well, i needed a boost guage and it wont look to good with just one pod in the car. so i decided to get a dual pod. then i needed another guage, so i choose the air/fuel just so it will look cool and at least it will give me a reference of wat i'm running.

well i'll try to find a closer route and lets just hope it works!!

yeah those are for the ricers. It doesn't even flash back and forth between red and green. How are you supposed to know anything from some stupid numbers?

Re: air/fuel signal?

Probably around the same price you paid for your Air/fuel gauge...they are sometimes called a Pyrometer...
