for the apexi timer with A/F reader u need to tap the ground wire to the ecu ground (normally black wire going to ecu)if not the reading is incorrect or no reading at all.but for this autometer a/f (is it?) i used it for 4 month and my ground wire tap to the ecu ground.if i tap the wire to somewhere else (eg.body ground, other acc. ground),the reading will go crazy just like it follow the engine rpm.
what about ur a/f sensor? is it ok? and what about the meter itself?
just my 10cent
