Just wondering would it be better to hook the Microedge up to the factory 02 sensor from the pcm or to one of the Analog Outputs from my LM-2 Wideband, i think the LM-2 would be more accurate, and if i should hook it to the LM-2 should i hook up the orange microedge wire to the + or - output of the LM-2
Also as far as the white wire goes can that be hooked up to the 6al box or must it go to the PCM

I'm not sure about the hook up of the Micro Edge but you've spent the money on the LM-2 so you may as well utilize it to the fullest. It is a lot more accurate than the factory narrow band and will give you less false readings.
You can shoot one of the guys at HSW a call and they will get you set straight right away. How's the car running? Have you used the NANO yet

I think its going to be set to the LM-1. Shoot Nick a PM and he can look at it if you have any issues.

Nick is pretty good with that kind of stuff. I'll ask him your questions when he gets back from lunch, but I would hook the ground up to the same exact spot that the wideband is grounded. It doesn't need to be connected to the wire, just use the same screw for both.

Well hopefully it isn't too difficult for you to run the ground back to the same point on both. This really needs to be done on the wideband units for a clean signal. Where are you grounding them out to right now? There should be plenty of good grounds inside the vehicle that you can ground both wires to.

okay great, no it wont be too much trouble, i should be able to easily move the grounds, right now what i did was remove the wires from the sleve that would be staying in the car (switched 12v, arm, 02) and then ran the sleve with the rest of the wires into the car through a boot in the firewall next to the heater and under the PCM, i can easily move the ground tomorrow to something in the cab.

Then you can take analog two out put and run it into your tuner program to log directly there. But you will have to program, at least the LM1, the WB to match your tuner program.
My wide band goes into the LM1 for logging/reading, to the MicroEdge for reading (can program it to show on screen) and rich/lean shut down, and to the HP Tuner for direct on screen reading and/or logging directly into program. God this stuff is fun.
