Default Scangauge Sucking power from afr output

hey guys, ive got a scanguage and the aeroforce afr kit. The wideband is installed correctly, but the gauge will not display afr's. At first I thought it was the installation, but I started checking voltage with a multimeter. When the wideband is plugged in by itself, and the car is turned on, it gives like 5-7 volts to the sensor wire, and drops to 2.78 or something like that a little bit. However, when I hook the scangauge sensor wire to the input on the scanguage, the voltage drops to 0.8, and so the scangauge only reads 11.5. If I unplug the sensor output from the scangauge input, the scangauge reads 10.0(slope 2, int is 10), and the voltage output from the wideband kit goes up to 2.78....



so, why does hooking up the scangauge cause the voltage to drop so much?

This is what I suggested on your post on our tech forum. Feel free to send it here when time is convenient and we can replace that input at no charge of course.
