stuck AEM wideband - SRT Forums

so when I first put in my wideband it worked just fine....now sor some reason it seems to be stuck displaying a certain AFR for some reason. Most the time it just says 14.8 and will stay like that the whole time I'm driving....but somtimes it will get stuck at 15 or 16 as well. Not fluxuating at all, just displaying that numer the whole time.

Maybe my O2 sensor went bad? Or maybe my wires got bent/worn or someting? Its all still connected and nothing look out of the norm.

anyony have any idea what it might be?

,Thanks

I turned mine on with the sensor disconnected and it will sit at 14.7 and never move. Check for burned or worn wires like you said, or your O2 sensor might be bad. If you have a friend with a UEGO try switching sensors with him and see what happens. Good luck with it!

check the wireing. when i had my sensor unhooked it read 14.7. Then the brown wire going into the wideband got loose and it made it read 14.7 Check the wires in the connector.

thanks....will do

I'm thinking its a bad O2 sensor....because sometimes it will change to a leaner number...if it was the wiring, it wouldn't change at all would it?
