Noob question

Hello, I recently bought some used gauges and having trouble installing the air/fuel gauge. I have an 02 Max SE.....am I suppose to hook it up with the MAF wire from the ECM?...I believe thats wire 62. I don't want to mess anything up so I'm asking the professionals(maxima.org members) for help. Thanks

well ide say scrap that a/f gauge since it doesnt serve any purpose beside float back and forth. go get a real a/f gauge like aem uego or something instead of cutting wires and ****.

Well I got a deal from one of the maxima.org members and all I really needed was the volt gauge to keep track of my system since it's dimming the light. Not only that I'm planning to custom install my gauges where the clock is located since I can't see what time it is durring the day due to glare and my radio displays the time anyways. So I wanna set up the gauges like the 350Z set up.

Why would you connect it to the MAF wire

Use an o2 sensor wire, that would make sense. But not as much as using a wideband o2 sensor so you don't even need tot ap into any ECU wires>
