I tried the search but I don't think its working....

Anyways, I have my LC-1 hardwired into the car, one output is being used to simulate a narrowband (because I replaced one of the 2 front O2's with it), and the second output goes to a dynotune gauge. My question, when you start up the car, does the wideband need any sort of warm-up time?

I ask because I sear I've read something like that bafore, but I couldn't find anything in the instructions, and I don't want to kill the sensor. I think I remember reading somewhere where someone said that you should turn the ignition on but not start the car for X seconds, while the sensor warms up, can anyone shed some light on that for me? Thanks!

 

a few seconds is fine but not extended periods, especially in the winter condensation forms in the exhaust and if that water hits a fully warmed up sensor it will damage it

 

It has a 10 second warmup. Did you install the LED and calibration switch with it?

Yea I did, but the way I wired it, the LED and calibration switch are under the center console, out of view. Does the LED tell you when its ready? I can always move the LED so its in view.

So 10 seconds and then start the car?

 

read my post, paraphrased from Innovative

 

Turo, how does the wideband to narrowband emulation look? Is it pretty convincing? I worry that replacing only one sensor would throw things off between the two banks.
