Question Changed Lambda - Lambda Link gone mad!!

Just changed the Lambda & it now goes straight to the furthest right hand green & stays there? I've reset the ECU but this made no difference.

Any ideas?

Question

It actually does it as soon as the ignition is turned even before starting the engine

Gonna swap the two white wires around tomorrow & see if that makes a difference but it shouldn't do?

Have you let the engine warm up fully?

sounds like it's wired up wrong for sure, the sensor wire is hooked up to 12v

did you take two seperate grounds from the lambdalink or wire them together?

also, where did you ground them out to?

in the end, I think I may have wired them together but ground them out to an ecu support stud.
seemed to work well for me

Talking

Turns out that the signal wire coming from the ECU is white just to totally confuse me whist trying to wire in a 2 white/1 black sensor. Also after my engine build the mechanic forgot to reconnect the Lambda Link earth wire

Basically I made a right hash of it LOL
