Please I need some info.
(My car is an european Civic TypeR EP3 (MY 2004) k20A2 engine, PRA ECU)
Can I use the PLX wideband sensor as primary... so remove the (primary) OEM narrowband one and use the narrowband 0-1V output from the PLX module?
For Kpro/data logging I will connect the wideband output (0 - 5V) to the ELD (pin 15 on PRA ECU)
I found that the stock PRA ECU narrowband use 0- 1,25V voltage signal
but the PLX narrowband signal is only 0 -1V ... so 0.25V of difference.
I'm afraid that this combination will not work....
If I can't connect the PLX as above I must put a bung before the cat. Is there a prefered location or I can put it right next to the primary OEM sensor. I'm asking this because I'm thinking that put it in a wrong place will create exhaust turbulence....
thank you! :D
PLX wideband & PRA EUDM ECU
so made a short test with the lambda wired as above. seems working.... (k20a2 factory map)
so PLX module narrowband voltage signal to ECU O2 primary input and wideband signal to ELD. I don't put the resistors to fool the ECU that the oem lambda is still there but i disable the O2 heater after getting the error code.
the car seems fine but I can't test on the road right now, just let it idle to see how the gauges and data logging works. it was all done in closed loop because I wanted to see how the PLX narrowband signal works.
What AFR figures I should read with the k20a2 factory map on a warm engine at idle?
many thanks

I can confirm that is NOT working. look at this:
the PLX says that the module must be powered closed to the ECU for same reference. I've tryed different locations. from cig lighter to directly ECU main power supply:
I used first: ECU connector A pin2 yel/blk and also tryed the connector E pin9 yel/blk.
as for the ground I used ECU case and also main ECU ground wire.
is this ok or should I stock to the cig lighter power source?
many thanks and best regards, Tomi
