    Oxygen Sensor Wire Coming off of ECU?

    Hey im installing an air/fuel ratio gauge and figured I could get a cleaner signal tying in from the ecu side rather than running the wire into the engine bay and risking interference. Anyone know what color wire this is off of the ecu? I looked in the manual and on here but couldnt find anything. Also what would be the best switched power wire to tie into.

    White. It's the only single wire that gets shielded. All the way at the end of one of the black connectors.

    Best power wire would probably be one of the yellow/blacks, going from the main relay to the white ECU connector.

    if it's a wideband it won't work right from the factory sensor. you need a wideband o2 sensor i don't think the factory sensor is even normal band
