Alright, so I got a replacement O2 from innovate and it worked great for about 2-3 days, then BAM, started messing up again. After driving for about 10-15 minutes the LED starts blinking, but it isn't error code blinks it is just sporadic blinks then it will go solid. Then it might wait a little bit and go solid again. Sometimes I have even had it do a heater calibration in the middle of driving, which brings me to my question. Where do most of you guys run your heater power and ground if you are NOT doing NB simulation? I currently have it tied into one of my stock O2's power and ground. Any ideas?

I've had mine powered/grounded off the rear O2 for about 3 years now.
Does it report data while the LED is blinking?

Yes, it does. That is the wierd part. It doesn't seem to be as accurate though. All of my wires are soldered too, so loose connection shouldn't be an issue.

IMO
I would disconnect the LED and the momentary switch if it is hooked up.
If serial connection is an option then definitely go that route,
there can be noticeable differences between analog and serial data.http://forum.efilive.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=6496&d=1256054929

willn,

How is your LED/pushutton wired up...?
Where is power/ground from...?

I thought you had to use the serial and the analog connection. I have the serial plugged into a USB to serial adapter along with the analog from the LC-1 going into AD1.

LED is wired like recommended, I am going black on LC-1 to one side of LED and then ground to the other. I am using the same ground on the LED as I am for the analog voltage ground, in fact, they are soldered together and go into the middle connection on the Flashscan device.

Any other ideas? I really don't want to take it to a shop to figure out.
