Uh oh... Did you buy a sensor to put in your exhaust? Or, did you just buy the gauge?

I think you gotta spice them into your 02 sensors, but unless you have a wideband sensor its really just goin to blink alot and be nearly impossible to read

Yeah bud I just bought the same autometer gauge and put it in. If you can carry it back lol and keep saving for a wideband lol. If not I ran my hot to my gauge acc. fuse, just grounded my ground, and then I just spliced into my blue o2 sensor wire "It should be the second wire". This worked for me I hope it can help you.
