Hey, I tapped into the Body Control harness below the fuse box for the power source. It was a red wire but I'll double check. The pin number is 38. I'll double check tonight.

true air fuel gauges come with their own sensors

are you trying to hook up one of the blinkey-blinkey light Autometer type units that splice into the existing 02 sensors? If so, tbh, utterly useless, they tell you nada, but here ya go

if you're doing a wideband, use something that has a keyed on power, preferably close by where you are going to mount the gauge so you don't end up with a rats nest worth of stuff. Test light will tell you what is constant, key-on, and ground

Any updates on the install? Here's the basic layout of the diagram on this link posted previously: http://www.autometer.com/productPDF/0837L.pdf

Please anyone correct me if I am wrong. I'm looking to dip into this gauge shortly.
