First post !!

Hope you can help me out here. Did not get a response at another forum but saw that there are some people here that know a lot about electrical (Magnes/NISTECH?).

I was trying to hook up my narrowband A/F gauge to the secundary O2 sensor from my 2005 350Z. It can not be done to the primaries, because that is a wideband.I was expecting a .4 - .6 Volt readout from the black wire, but it is a steady zero. Is this because the sensor first has to reach a certain temperature or is the secundary sensor only working if the primary fails.

Anyone??

Thanks

the secondary o2 sensors are only there to make sure the cat is working. You will NOT get an accurate AF ratio that far downstream!!!!!
