New to wiring up gauges, need help.
I have an AEM wideband that I need to wire up so I can get my car tuned.
I got the pillar mount, I know I just need to weld in a bung to my Y and run that up to my gauge. I'm a little confused on what I need to wire it to for power... Does anyone know of a writeup, or have any pictures on what works good for a power source?
I'm going to do tranny temp and fuel pressure also here soon.
thanks!

How many wires does the harness have or how many wires are comming out of the gauge? My gauges have 4 wires; ground, constant 12v, 12v when acc is ON, and one that sends the signal for temperature or whatever it's measuring.

prolly has three wires and a plus to go to the 02 sensor. one is switched power so it turns on a when the car is on, other is same but for lighting and third is ground. if there is a 4th its likely for always on power.

It has the oxygen sensor then 4 others.
If I remember correctly, it said only 2 are required to be hooked up.
Positive and negitive. 1 was for logging onto a tuner and the last was some other power... I don't think it needs constant power does it? Just accessory when the key is turned over right? Where do I wire this too?
