Default Wideband O2 sensor

would this sensor work with a Power FC?

no that is a 5wire wideband sensor.. you need a narrowband 3 wire..

no you need a separate unit.. you can feed a narrow band simulation into the apexi but you can with any ecu if you get the simulation sorted for the correct sensor voltages.

Oh right so its mainly a narrowband sensor ill be wanting then for the apexi unit and a wideband for a gauge for abit of a detailed sketch on what's going.
well the reason im looking into a new O2 sensor is because i believe mine is shot, what sort of voltages would i be seeing on my commander to check if its working correctly simon?

thanks

roughly 0.2~0.5 on idle and .9 on boost iirc.

you can switch it off..

ETC --> Function Select --> O2 Feedback, scroll right and press down arrow to turn it off and the symbal will change to indicate off.It will then use the fuel map only..

well i checked last night and its voltage is at 0.9 at idle. it does seem to go down to 0.6 but only for a split second, and then it goes down to 0.00 and then back up to 0.9 once it warm.
i took a pick of my commander display when the engine is warm if its ok to email it to you, just shows the voltages on sensors.

thanks simon
