Default a couple question's after guage install

i hooked all my guage's up yesterday and now my car is running like crap.my A/f guage isnt moving at all.its pegged out.my check engine light came on and it feals like im running with a cut plug wire.it take's of sputtering then smooth's out a little.i tapped into the driver o2.

my fuel pressure guage sender is bad i think.we tested my guage in another car and it works fine,all wiring is fine.i did cut and butt connect them.

guage's are

fuel pressure
air-fuel
oil temp(just got to tap into the plate)

any ideas?

Did you tap into the Black wire? Because that the one you need to. This is why I bought the casper AF plug and play kit.

Might want to pull the code and narrow down the possibilities.

i got a friend with a snap on scanner to come pull the code.it was exactaly what i thought.the 02 sensor.i got under my car and pulled the wire off the 02,but it is still acting up,so i got me a old one off a friends old y-pipe that im gonna try for now,then buy some new one's.

these are some pics i took.im guessing the butt connectors are from someone exstending the 02 sensor wires.

sounds like you lost the driver side 02. I would recheck your connections.

Could call your buddy with the scann back up, and have him look at the voltage signal the o2 is giving...
