I’ve ran aem widebands for the last ten years and they do very well for me. Sensors can be bought at most auto parts stores if a replacement is needed and they are very easy to setup and install. I’ve had innovate widebands which had a constant e8 error code regardless of having a new sensor or not, I’ve used a glow shift wideband and it would read anywhere from 1 to 2 afr full points off.

install error most likely. Some people tend to half-*** a simple installation.

Innovate uses the same Bosch lsu 4.9 sensor as aem or almost any other wide and.I have had multiple innovate lc2’s on multiple vehicles and never had an issue. I’d be willing to bet 98% of the complaints you see about innovates are from people not wiring exactly to the instructions with special attention paid to the ground circuit. Only other wideband I’d recommend is the ballenger motor sports that uses the ntk sensor, but you’re not going to run to the parts store to get that sensor. It is a superior sensor though. Another thing to make sure the sensor lives is to make sure it is installed above the center line of the pipe, the higher the better


Edit, just realized this thread was from 2019. Atleast I’m not the one who brought it back

turns out aem is just trash. Installed a couple more innovate no problem and all the other aem guys are having problems with the gauges going bad
