Ive currently got an Innovate LC 1 fitted, but i think the sensor may be on its way out its jumping from lean to rich on both the gauge and megasquirt software. I re set the settings and recalibrated it, its now sticking at one point of the gauge every few minutes???
I had a 4 hour mapping session this week im wondering if ive killed it as it was working fine up to that point?
Ive tried the innovate forum but its currently not working frown

Im hoping someones going to say yep thats what they do when they pack up hehe

Have you checked what reading it gives after a free-air cal?

It should be around 20.8% Oxy, you may need to use the logworks software to see this.

It calibrates fine, and no fault codes come up on the led?
Yes the free air cal read 20.8%, i tested the sensor by covering it with a rag with carb cleaner on it and the oxygen reading went down to 8%. maybe its the control unit then?

So does the readings in logworks tie in with the gauge (which I guess is fed from the same LC-1 output to the ECU),?

Yes mate
Just to add ive re grounded all the leads just to be sure its not a grounding fault
