aem wideband, truboost, oil press gauge on same ground??

Post by tandrew21 »

will having my aem wideband, aem truboost gauge and oil pressure gauge on the same ground affect my wideband readings. AFR seems to be pretty accurate but i just wanted to make sure... Thanks.

Anybody have any input on this? I have my aem wideband, aem truboost, and oil pressure gauge on the same ground and power source will this affect my readings. Everything seems fine. Just curious if anyone else has experienced any problems.

Yes it can, You want to have the most consistent power and ground to the wideband. Don't be lazy and ground it by itself.

I always like to have the WB on its own dedicated ground

Get a motec plm, they will run at 9 volts with the noisest electrical system in the world and it still performs flawlessly.. I had a car a couple days ago and had my lm1 on it.. Stupid lm1 would start glitching really bad after about 5 grand and had to re warm up every time I started the car cause the battery had a bad cell.. Finally I got fed up and tossed the motec in there and it worked flawlessly the whole time, it even kept the O2 hot while key on engine off and only at 9 volts of battery power.. Motec for the win everything else is crap ;)...
