with V2 can i just wire the wideband straight into the black box, or do i still need the lambda cable too?

The wideband O2 sensor connects to the wideband controller;

the wideband controller connects to V2 (using a null modem serial comms cable).

also, is there any way to use the wideband at WOT instead of OL? for every day driving that is.

Hi, as far as I know, the only way you could use a wideband sensor to do tuning on the go is with the RoadRunner PCM.

do you mean for tuning or monitoring...?

or for real time correction (see what nevinsb said)...?

You can get a specially made LC-1 null modem V2 cable from TAQuickness

( or you can make your own if you're handy with ethernet wiring )

I cant find a 6 pin ethernet cable. Can i just adapt the wires straight into the orage pins?

It's actually an RJ12 connector.


No, it does not go to the orange pins.


You will need to cross the Rx and Tx wires ("null modem").

i made an adapter from the headphone style jack to the 6 pin RJ12 jack. now i'm stuck on PID's and MAPs, because none of the ones in the tutorial are in my computer. can't find a tutorial or which PID's to use for serial instead of analog.

Did you cross Rx and Tx as show in the diagrams (from the above links)...?

I copied the diagram precisely.
