I've decided to get a lambda fitted into my exhaust for when my car gets back on the road. I've found a bloke selling universal ones ebay, you reckon they'll be ok for the job? On 20th Oct, 2015 Tom Fenton said:

This would be a better choice

1 wire dosnt have a heater fitted so it is slower to respond when cold I think it is just the 3 and 4 that have the heater fitted but it is easy to find inf on the web the wiring is simple. |

i often wonder if you need a heated one if you always let the car warm up before driving it |

So is the 4 wire one from the first link for £22 ok to use with a seperate gauge? Any way of finding out which wires go where? Going to use with the win SU program to get the needle right. Good idea in theory, but from when I have used WinSU before, I doubt you will get anywhere near the right needle, as it only lists the standard ones. To get the right one for turbo use most people start with a standard one and then file it to suit.

the two white wires are for the heater element, one is earth, the other live (doens't matter which)

From my experience, to get a true reading all the time, get the heated one. When the element cools off at idle and just abouve it will read rich when its not. It took me ages to figure this out on my SPI and it was the relay that was boloxed, heard it click when energised, there was 12volts there, but nothing out.
