    WIDEBAND! install help

    First of all.... where did everyone run the wires into the cab?

    Second, do you have the 'lambda cable' brain box outside in the elements or did you put it inside? I will need to make like a 1" hole in the floor to run cables if that box has to be inside. It only has like a 2 foot extension hose on it, and the oxygen sensor plug is on one side.


    The part I'm talking about is boxed in red and probably 2" x 5"

    I'd put that brain box in the cab if possible. Try to keep it away from the engine bay's heat and the elements. Look under your dash in the corner by the E brake. There's a rubber gromet on the firewall where the hood release cable runs through the firewall. Pull that grommet back and there will be a decent size hole to run the wideband's wire through. I run a TON of wires through there

    I mounted the box to the frame and ran the wires to the fuse box under the hood. Probably not the smartest way, but it works. I have the LC-1 too.

    Mine is mounted next to the brake booster on the firewall. Make sure to ground the gauge and sensor to the same point to get an accurate reading. I didn't the first time!

    Just drilled a few holes and ziptied the lambda cable. It was lil dusty, but no rust/mud, so should be ok.
