AEM UEGO for narrowband? Who is right??

[GRSHOPR]

I've been reading up on using my UEGO white wire to replace narrowband functions for the ECU, since I don't have an O2 sensor in my dp. I have a 91 JDM motor, harness, and ECU. I've read 4-5 posts so far, and they're split down the middle. Some say I can splice that wire into the ECU, others say I can't. Can anyone definitively say which way it is? Thanks.

im not so sure that you could. the narrow band only outputs a 0-1v reading whereas the aem outputs 0-5v...

im not saying you cant, but IF you cant thats the only reason i can see. but then again im no 3s expert like some of these guys

I was told that as well, and made me wonder as to the validity of it too, but then I see guys saying yes on other threads, and even giving out pin numbers, such as #53. Who is right?

I think #53 is the EGR input to allow you to log the wideband output to a logger?.

If the AEM hasn`t got a specific "Narrowband Output wire" then you can`t wire it up to the stock ECU as a replacement for the stock O2`s.

You can if the white wire is a 0-1V simulated narrowband output. I did this for about a day with my plx and decided I didn't like the ecu messing with my tune. Did a good job of targeting 14.7 in closed loop though. I run with no O2 signal to the ecu (except wideband to egrt for logging purposes).

[GRSHOPR]

Then the next question is- IS it a 1V? Or 5V? How do you not run lean without an O2 sensor?? I chill around 14-15 at cruise, and about 12-13 at acceleration.

[GRSHOPR]

And it is "analog output. connects to an auxilary unit that accepts a 0-5V input."

You have to tune with a piggyback or standalone to run correctly with no narrowband signal. If you aren't doing that, you will want to give the ecu a signal. It's also a good idea to have an AFR gauge to keep an eye on things with no narrowband. Looks like the white wire is 0-5V and that will not make the ecu happy. The blue wire outputs something, but I don't think it's 0-1V (it could be). You could check it with a volt-meter. You could reinstall the narrowband for normal driving. Wideband is good for tuning, but a narrowband is fine for making sure nothing is TOO out of the ordinary. Best would be to either tune it or add another bung so you can have both signals.

I'd throw in a narrowband just to make the computer happy, being your a TT swap using a JDM harness the connector should be right there too.

[GRSHOPR]

It is, I just didn't want to have to yank the dp off to weld another bung on. I have a WB, but is there any way to tune the fuel trim without a stand alone or piggyback system??

Hey Nick, did you get my pm about that hotwire?? The site was acting all funny, not sure if it got through.
