    Probably the white wire off the lambda probe. What's the gauge wiring like? Do you have a 4 wire probe on there? I can't remember?

      Gav, I beleive Digi 2's run with 3 wire sensors.

      Assuming your O2 sensor is in decent condition, you'd simply splice in a signal wire from the gauge to the O2 sensor signal wire.

      Have a look at this

        im not sure where i should be actually looking in the engine bay in the first place :/ iv done a/f gauges a few times before but on newer cars where iv tapped off the ecu main plug, im still a bit new to vdubs and older cars in general, a pic or accurate description of where i should be looking would be a great help! cheers,

          Look down the back of the motor on the drivers side. The connector should be sat there on the engine mount.

          EDIT
          Use the information in the link, looks to be right to me.

            Hey mate,

            I installed a wideband ratio gauge in mine not too long ago however I had an additional sensor welded into the exhaust. I will put up some pics once I get a chance.

            Did the gauge not come with a sensor?
