Hal, is this compatible with the fcon which only has one WB sensor?

Why does the box have sensitivity pots on it if the bosch sensors come pre calibrated?

I think it'll work with anything. It just provides a linear 0-5V output (for AFR from 10-20). Honestly, I've forgotten all about calibrating those things. They say to calibrate like every 300 miles or some ridiculously low number!
Without calibrating over the last 3k miles, AFRs still seem spot on (driver and passenger side). It is quick and easy to perform the calibration though if you keep the control unit accessible.

They can be used with anything that has a 0-5v input that is able to be calibrated, which I believe FCON does. As rcdash posted, it is liner 0-5v 10-20afr.


meatbag, the pots are for free air calibrate. It is very simple - put the warmed up sensor in free air, and turn pot until it blinks.

rcdash, I'm not sure what is with the ridiculously low suggestion of recalibrating every 300 miles or whatever - this controller is generally a set it and forget it type of deal. I am not sure I have ever recal'd the one on my 350z, though I'm sure once a season or so wouldn't hurt.


After extensive testing and abuse, this is my preferred wideband controller by far. Very reliable, consistent, accurate readings. I am now using one on the dyno in place of the Dyno Dynamics analyzer.


Currently gauges are out of stock due to Haltech's wideband gauge supplier going out of business. Wideband controllers and sensors are in stock.

I have had my in for about 12,000 miles without a single issue. If you can turn your car on, you can calibrate these things. Very straight forward.

Haltech suggests free air calibration every 483 miles (300 kms) to 1290 miles (800 kms) for unleaded and 2-5 hours of use for leaded fuel. It's more of a CYA type thing than anything. I've had mine in my car now for 5500 miles and it's not needed any calibration beyond the first one (unleaded). The calibration is simple - just 2 side pots that get turned till the lights blink fast and then keep turning till they blink slowly. Literally takes a few seconds

So any timeframe when they're gonna be back in stock? What other gauges can I use that'll work directly with the Haltech without raping my pockets?

I checked with the US office today (they supply this product, it is not from Australia), and they do not have an eta and "need an 8th day of the week to check on them".

^^ That's not too helpful (from Haltech USA I mean ). The gauges look pretty standard - I'd think anything that reads 0-5V and translate to 10-20 would work fine.

as long as the controller is just outputting a 0-5V range, this will work perfectly

hmmm thanks for the heads up, so this gauge will be able to read with the haltech and adjust the a/f accordingly if theres an issue or will i always have to calibrate if theres a change i.e. weather?

Hal... cmon i say u should pressure em to start making! Im sure you guys got a lot of back-order on this item! Time to start pumpin em out!

What??? Widebands just read the AFR - nothing more nothing less. If you hook up the wideband to an EMS, the EMS will make the corrections based on your preselected AFR targets. Is that what you meant?

Nice find on those gauges str8dum1! I like that one better than what I got! (Well maybe the blue digits is a little bit of a clash with the rest...)

This one would match my interior perfectly: http://prosportgauges.com/digital-ai...gauge-AMB.aspx COOL! (The Haltech gauges are red, not amber)

Yea thanks for clarifying. That's what I meant. Tryna figure out if these gauges can be hooked up to the haltech system? Sorry still pretty much learning how to use this haltech stuff!

RcDash, the 'haltech' gauge looks just alot like the ones used by DynoTune nitrous. With more searching, you could probably find them even cheaper. I also think that the prosport ones look nicer than the Haltech branded ones.

the gauge is just a readout of the voltage supplied by the wideband controller. Thats it. There is no adjusting anything in the Haltech by a gauge. YOu must your your computer.

Any gauge that can convert the 0-5V out of the wideband controller can be used to show AFR.

Default 5 volts

So does the 02 sensor actually generate and than output 5 volts or is it some how bumped up or amplified....?
