Default aem wideband problems or fuel problems?

so i just rebuild my motor for boost, buts its not boosted lol, and i wanted to make sure my air/fuel ratio was doing ok so i welded a bung into my stock exhaust and put it and when i go WOT it goes like all the way to red side and off the gauge and shows that it 3 dashes, am i running super rich at WOT or what, its at like 14.9 for idle. Could it be a bad sensors or is my gauge broken or what?


thanks

no, the RED LEDs indicate lean air/fuel mixture and when it goes off the LED band at the red side and shows the dashes (indicating a measurement beyond the wideband's translation) means you are running extremely lean, to the point where you run leaner than the wideband's range of measurement, usually 20.0 max. That needs to be fixed ASAP.
