use that wire for your worthless gauge that'll drive you nuts after 1 night (ask Cory, aka talontsi85).
Haha...I had that problem after the first night, took me a week to get used to it and I dont even notice it anymore (waste of money, so far) I was on the edge of taking it back out.
On the other hand, it is good for conversations...And on the other hand of that, most of the people who ask dont know what the H*** you're talking about. (Oh..Ok!...Cool!..)thats what I get, haha.

Where can I find the purple wire that runs off of the o2 sensor? My buddy's talon has it on the driver's side, next to the fusebox, and I cannot find it on my gsx. Also, what's more accurate, the 02, or the ecu? I know neither will yield anything to tune by, but I want something a little better then the other.

If it was mounted lower under my radio im sure it wouldnt bother me as much. But when I bought the car it was up on the A-pillar and at night it was more or less annoying. So now pulled that out and.. I don't even know where it is.. come to think of it.. Chirs? lol Did you put it somewhere? Or did you seriously give it to my brother hahaha

Well, i ran the green wire from the gauge off of that 4th pin..damn was that a b**** to wire up..no room! I then hooked the ground up, and ran the power, but when the car is on, it only is on the full rich..the light doesn't move back and forth like usual..I wonder if i should just run power straight from teh battery to it..

Well, if you wired it to the wrong wire at any point, you might have blown it out. The signal wire is meant to only handle up to 1 volt, so it you wired it into a 5V or 12V line, it might be dead.

well, I ran the green signal wire, from the gauge straight to the pin 4 off of the ecu harness(it's a white wire-I tapped off of it) I ran the ground to a bolt right infront of the driver's side fuse box, and the power is tapped off of a wire i had through the firewall already, that was run straight from the battery...That wire originally ran to a switch..still does, but i tapped off of it for power to the gauge. I wonder if it's just that picky, that I mist run poewr to it seperate?

Ground it to the ECUs' ground(pins 101 or 106), could just be a ground loop issue
