Default Where is the best place to power and ground my wideband?

I was thinking just splice it into the pink wire for the TCS for power since it is ignition controlled and then ground it under the center console somewhere directly to the floorpan.

Does that sound like it would work or do I need a cleaner power source?

Thanks!

I just installed a PLX SM-AFR and I just ran the ground back to the battery and it works like a charm.

Some Guys ground them under the radio in the dash and they work too.

I just thought that you can't get a cleaner ground than the battery.

I powered mine using an add a circuit in the fuse box (my car is a Corvette though, so it might be different in yours).

Add a fuse...................

Good Luck!

I powered mine from the fuse box, on the driver side dash.

So TCS power and floorpan ground should be fine?

What about the analog ground? That should be fine if i just ground it the battery right?
