Put a multi-meter on the signal wire, black one iirc, should cycle from about 0.2v to 0.9v continually, if it don't then it's fudged

Make sure engine is warm up to operating temp as lamba only starts reading once warm if stone cold readings will not bounce between 0.2 and 1 v.

scooby cats (specially the older 1's) tend to need a good heating up ie before the test take it for a spin (spirited) and then get the tester to rev the the engine high before the test and it should pass mate

You got the wrong tester. Go to Scoobyclinic.
