Default Auto meter A/F gauge reading 9-10 LED bars with A/C on!

I have changed the location of the o2 wire, the ground (3 times) and I have the power ran to the fuse box by the dead pedal.( I even ran it sraight to the battery to check but same thing). It runs like 1-2 LED bar with nothing on and no load. 3-4 bars under load. 5-6 with lights and 9-10 under load with A/C. I know they are not supposed to be 100% accurate but this sucks. Is there anything I may have overlooked during the install? Thanks

Sounds like you have it wired wrong.

It would seem like the easy answer but there is only three wires and I know where they go. Could the o2 sensor itself be the problem?

Could be the O2 sensor, i've noticed with a faulty O2 sensor your car will run completely different everyday.

Try grounding on an ECU ground wire.

Also, sounds like you may just have the wrong white wire...
