Can someone spoon feed me wbo2 installation?

I have the LC-1 sitting in my garage waiting to hook it up. I had a second bung welded up behind my stock NB sensor. The LC-1 for those who don't know has a group of 5 wires, a group of 2 wires, then it has two headphone inputs. I have many questions though:

1. Leroy told me the wb output needs to go to pin f14 on the ecm and that the ground needs to go to B9. I have my ecm pulled and have no idea what these pins are he's reffering too, and wether there are wires to splice into or if I have to solder stuff (I'm pretty bad at soldering by the way).
2. The manual says to mount it to a source that turns on with the ignition...are people just running an inline fuse on a wire to the "ign" port on the fuse box?
3. To go along with the second quesion, the manual says that to calibrate the sensor it must be exposed to air. Does this mean it can't be in the downpipe when it's calibrated or does it just mean it can't have any exhaust running by it. If it can't have any exhaust running by it then the how do you calibrate it if you have it turn on with the ignition?
4. With the two headphone jacks (one says "in" the other "out"), it comes with an adapter to plug it into a computer (I'm assuming for datalogging), but why are there two of them?

Those are my major hang ups...if anyone can clearify them for me that would make my life quite a bit easier. Thanks

I know other people are running this particular wideband sensor. How did you guys deal with the problems i'm having? Thanks

Jason,

f14 and b9 are unused pins on the ecm. Do a search for ecm connector or something similar to find a picture. I can mail you a couple of pigtails if you need them. I usually recommend removing the egr pigtail and using it for one of them. I can't remember if you have egr or not.

The fuse box should be fine to power the wb.

You can calibrate the sensor in the downpipe. Just don't have it running. You may want to have it sitting a few hours without running to insure an accurate calibration.

The other ports are inputs and outputs for the Innovate software. I don't remember doing much with them except looking at the software. I've only done one LC-1 install, though.

alaska,

i think i gave power to the lc1 by using a male spade connector right into the fuse panel labaled "ignition".
i was able to find the ecm pins @ napa auto parts. i have the part # @ home if you want.
you crimp the pin onto the wb02 input wires and insert into the proper open space on ecm connector.
digs wb page shows exactly where these 2 spots are

Thanks for all the replies guys. I searched and found plenty of articles before I posted, but none answered my question then I got replies and pm's that dumbed it down enough that I could understand what was going on. I'm gonna go tackle the installation now. One final question:
Jim you said I can calibrate the sensor in the downpipe without the engine running. If i hook up my wb to the ignition port in the fuse box won't the sensor be dead if the engine isn't running? Thanks.

Ignition will have power, if the key is in the 'on' postion.

Holy crap! I knew that...I wonder why I didn't think of it. Thanks for bringing it to my attention though.

Re: Can someone spoon feed me wbo2 installation?

Okay, one last question (I hope), the LC-1 has 7 wires:
red: 12v
blue: ground
Black: calibration button
white: system ground
green: analog ground
yellow:analog out 1
brown: analog out 2

It's these last 4 (white, green, yellow, brown) that I don't know what to do with. I know one of the outputs goes to F14, but is it yellow or brown (or does it not matter, and if this is the case do I just cap the other one?) I know one of the grounds goes to B9, I'm assuming it's the green analog ground, but do I ground the white one with it like the LC-1 manual says or do I just ground it separately? So basically I'm looking at 4 wires with 2 homes.

In Big Mike's pictures it looks like he plugged the brown wire into f14 and the green wire into b9. Thanks.

instead of PMing it to people, it would help the community out if it was a permanently-linked topic....as we get closer to seeing the code59 guy's stuff come out, it will be asked all over the place.
