Default PLEASE HELP. . . . air to fuel. confuseddd

So i jsut bought the autometer air to fuel. Yes i know should have bought wide band but currently dont have that kinda money and i like the pretty lights anyway haha.

But anyway I hooked up the red and white red being power which i hooked up to ignition and white was just ground.

The last wire is the purple and it says to install to the oxygen sensor o2 sensor signal wire. Wtf wire is that and its supposed to be on the secondary correct?

Any help is greatly appreciated !!!

Please dont use that POS. It doesnt work and if you are running a cat it is completely pointless because it grabs the narrowband signal after the cat which makes the readings more inaccurate......Get rid of that junk and get a plx m300 Also dont you have Kpro?? If you really want to know how to install it say so....but ur better off selling it to some ricer....

I believe only the primary is 0-5v and the secondary is 0-1v. I will have to verify this...

This is a direct replacement for the RSX Type-s Secondary http://store.summitracing.com/...24409 and it is a 0-1v. So the secondary is a narrowband.

so if you wants any kind of idea of whats going on, he should run the gauge to the primary.

No that will not work. The primary will output 0-5v representing 10-20 AF linearly. Opposed to the narrowband outputting 0-1v where .5v is 14.7, anything under 14 AF is 1v and anything over 15.25 is 0v. So if he were to hook it up to the primary and it read anything over 12 AF it would read rich which is backwards. Maybe this can explain it better: http://www.hondata.com/techplx.html

Plain and simple its GARBAGE...

i've never payed them any attention cuz they are a light show at best.

i didnt consider the gauge only accepting 0-1v

I just wrote an entire paragraph is to why you shouldnt connect it to the primary....If you insist on connecting it, hook it to the:

ECU
Left wire harness (closest to the centre of the vehicle)
Second row down (middle row)
White/pink wire (White solid with pink line)

Sorry dude im a lil out of it right now. One more quick stupid noob question im not good with this electrical stuff. When i was hooking up for the power i tapped into a fuse but it blew out a fuse. I blew the hazards fuse which shuts off all your red interior lights taillights and parking lights. I replaced the fuse and everything turned on except for my climate control lights and my radio doesnt light up. The radio lights are on but you cant barely see them. What fuse would that be?

No white wire with pink stripe.
Just solid pink wire and White wire with a red line.

Check fuse No. 14(10A)in the under-dash/relay box and No. 1 (30A) and No.4
(20A) in the under-hood/relay box. Its the white with the red strip then.....
