Default Air Fuel Guage Problem

I had a p06 ecu , i got a chipped p28 ecu and put that in now my air fuel guage won't work just shoes 1 green bar showing its on. i tried all the wire colors on my o2 sensor and it still don't work if i connect it to the black wire it goes off. what could be the problem?? my s-afc works. i don't think it has anything to do with the ecu, and i shouldn't have to rewire my s-afc with my new ecu. what could be the problem y my air fuel controller don't work.. bad o2 sensor even tho its only a year old.. just happened since i put my new ecu in

Same thing happened to me after I went from P30 to chipped P28. I think since its a chipped P28 which has different fuel maps, it runs a little richer and since you probably have a narrowband O2 sensor, the gauge isn't gonna do anything, at least I think...

Try putting the P06 back and see what happens?

Nope never fixed it, it was a light show but now just a light I'm waiting to get a wideband and get it street tuned.

Well I think if you have a "stock" O2 sensor, you pretty much have a narrowband O2 sensor. A narrowband O2 sensor + air fuel gauge = meaningless light show.
