Should be pretty cut and dry but you guys have those screwy PCM's in your cars. Were there directions? Sounds like you ground one, find a hot wire to tap into, ignition fuse so it's on when it's running and so there's a fuse, ground on the block (I guess) and the o2 sensor wire. That's the wire that it gets it's data from.
the ground and power are for the lights and such withen the gauge.
The one for the ignition is so it only works while the car is started
No idea why you need one for the engine block ground...odd
And the one wire taps into the hot wire on the o2 sensor
It is a narrow band btw folks. Basically a light show

ya narrow bands do nothing really. Thats why I sold my autometer...so i can get a wideband. It still will be cool, but wont help you much other then a "show" gauge.

you have a narrow band, it basicly says rich, nuetral, lean, and uses the factory sensor. Its not very accurate, its more looks then a true gauge.

If you kept the stock sensor, then it's still not very useful :) It is pretty though.

yeah they are nice and make cool lights but they get annoying and wont help you tune your car
