I have a universal Air\Fuel gauge and was wondering if anybody knew where the wires go to. There is a red, white, and black wire coming from the unit. Any info on where they go would help alot. Thanks I got a 2000 gxe manual fed spec if that helps.

 

anybody got a guess?

 

did u figure it out??

 

Red is power- I belive it needs 12v source, so find something that uses 12v and its always ON with the ignition ON. Ground- its a black wire and you need to find a nice grounding point eighter in the fuse box, or any good bolt on the chassis of the vehicle. I ususally find bolts like that on the firewall or you can go as far as connecting them to the grounding point right on the timing chain cover- there are 2 10mm bolts with wires going to it right by the front cylinder head. The white wire is your signal wire, you need to use a VOLT meter, and probe the wires going into the 02 sensor connector to find a source where the reading switches from like .1V to .8V or so this is your signal wire. O2 sensor will have a POWER wire for the heater element inside the 02 sensor ( our 02 sensors are all heated inside ) then you get refference voltage- 5V that the sensor modifies and sends back to the ECU- using another wire- the signal wire what you need to tap into. The 4th wire is a ground wire. It takes about 1 min to figure this out using a volt meter. My FSM wasn't too clear as to which wire was what, so I just used a volt meter to figure out the signal, refference voltage, heater voltage and ground. I don't use any A/F Autometer gauges, but I used this for my O2 sensor simulator (www.o2simulator.com) in order to keep the check engine light from coming on due to me not having any cats. I hope you just using this gauge just for show, cause its pretty worthless as far as tuning goes. You need a real Wide-band 02 sensor in order to tune right.

 

BlackBIRDVQ. did the 10 inches melt yet?? heard it is freezing up there??

 

Man driving home from my GFs house today in the morning..... sucked ! I have 255-40-17 Dunlop SP9000 summer tires, and my rears are bald- I am getting my Blizzaks this Monday. I drove my GFs 00 4 banger Camry all day yesterday cause of the unexpected snow, getting into my Max today it felt like a rocket ! Need to switch cars more often to appreciate the power Snow has froze, bridges are frozen, everything froze.... I feel like I'm on ice skates when I drive my car. I was going to order the Blizzaks in 2 weeks, but I had to order em up alot earlier. And since I have the Blehmco TTZ kit to put on this weekend, I can't run any small wheels. Big wide Blizzaks are expenssive !

 

i know the feeling....sucks driving in sleet.......
