Aem wideband install
Thoes who have an aem wideband how did you install it. Black to ground red to switchd power source that has a fuse like a radio but what did you do with the white and blue wire ?

Re: Aem wideband install
You should have a ground, a power wire, and perhaps a light power souce (unless your gauge is older and the light is always on). The other wires are your sensor wires and should plug into the 02 sensor.

Re: Aem wideband install
i put the red on 12v switch. You should ground it to the thermostat where the engine grounds are. i have read you should try to ground all your stuff to the same place on your car to stop unwanted noise. I run the white wire to d14 on the ecu. Blue wire is for a rs232 cable.

Re: Aem wideband install
the black wire is your gound
the red wire is your power source (ran mine to the fuse box with the radio fuse.)
the white wire is your source.
the blue wire is not needed.
run a good solid ground with the black wire,
run the red wire to your fuse box
run the white wire to d10 or d14 pin on your ECU. either cut the old wire or splice it in. assuming you have hondata you can datalog with your wideband.

OP, are you trying to replace your stock o2 with the AEM? if so you should run in open loop and just wire power and ground. then to datalog you can use the white wire to d10 (ELD, which is a true 0-5v input)

Re: Aem wideband install
the bad thing about the aem is that the white wire is a 0-5v output so you cant really run it to d14. you cant use the aem to provide narrowband data to the ecu. and also datalogging from d14 is unreliable because it reads a max of like 3.7 volts.

Re: Aem wideband install
Ok so red to switched power source black to ground and white to sensor voltage D10 on the ecu and leave blue alone ??. It will be used with hondata or ectune. Dose it matter if it's obd1 or obd2 ecu / motor meaning is it still d10

What kind of noise are you talking about? Like the noise a TV makes when nothing is playing? My AEM uego wideband does that for somereason. Everytime i turn it on it makes the noise of a TV with no volume...

Re: Aem wideband install
Please dont post unless you have factual info. The AEM can do due nearst emulation (narrowband) via a switch on the back which makes the signal 0-1v. It has 4 positions (one is 0-5v linear, 0-1v narrowband, I dont know the other 2 off my head)
Nothing wrong with logging from D14. Sure it only goes to 3.7 volts, but that ended up being like 16.7 afr on my AEM. Thats higher then what you need to know.
AKA READ THE DAMN MANUAL

Re: Aem wideband install
I cant read the manual becuase I didn't buy it yet i'm planning on buying it soon i was just curious as to what people did before i had to install it. And yes it's an odb1 ecu it's a jdm p30

Re: Aem wideband install
1) 0-5v output and datalog off d10 (or d14 if you want the reduced range). ecu in open loop
2) 0-1v output to d14 for narrowband simulation (no datalogging available). ecu in closed loop

Re: Aem wideband install
Well if your using a wideband to tune anyway, your going to have an aftermarket ecu. And every good aftermarket ecu I know of has closed loop built in that you can set parameters to, including what o2 sensor voltage to use.
At least with ectune you can just use 0-5v to log and use closed loop if you want.
So basically the only time you'd use 0-1v is if your running a stock ecu and are replacing the stock o2 sensor with it.

The white wire on the AEM gauge is going to go to d14 on my chipped obd1 Honda ECU.
I am using HULOG to get data to my laptop, and Crome Pro to datalog (which we've seen get 25+ plots per second, much faster than Freelog).
I'll report back, despite not being the OP. Was looking for conclusive information here, but this looks like I can keep my gauge installed and intact (for manually reading a/f) while using HULOG (which I have the 4 pins pinned out on the ECU for) into the laptop.
Technically, this is still 'using a wideband' to tune, but using the 'narrowband' simulated analog output for letting HULOG read directly from the ECU to plot MAP/RPM/A-F in order to tune.

This thread has saved me lots of time (so that I don't have to switch to my Innovate LC-1, since I have the AEM gauge etc setup)

I'm doing the same thing with a newer aem uego model and it says it has red-+12v black-gnd white-signal positive brown-signal gnd. I ran both the brown and black to the sensor ground on the ecu and it's acting weird like during the heating process it just goes blank and shows the 4 lines

Re: Aem wideband install
Did your aem harness have a brown wire for a signal ground?

Re: Aem wideband install
I did that anthats still doing the same thing. It heats for about two or 3 seconds and the. The "needle" sweeps all the way to the end and just shows 4 line

Re: Aem wideband install
You may have damaged it by wiring it incorrectly in the first place. Also, it may not be wiring related at all... how long was the sensor installed into the exhaust stream before you actually wired up the gauge/system ???
