okay so i changed the wires around so the brown is going to the pin 10 wire but i still have no reading in megatune. Now i cant seem to find the proper ego switch point(v) #. I cant get the lc-1 to work with my computer either so i cant program the outputs. or should i not have to. what does everyone else run for switch point volts.

2.5v is the proper switch point. Is the LED lighting up? Do you have the LED wired in parallel with the button? This is why so many people bitch about the LC-1. When you are sitting there with 7 wires from the LC-1 itself, 4 wires from the gauge, an LED+button, and some of them are the same color, it gets confusing pretty quick.

The schematic I followed was hand drawn by a drunk guy...and was super-easy, and worked flawlessly.
I did read the instructions as well though.

yes the switch is in with the led, the wideband is working great with the innovate gauge, just cant seem to get the signal to the ecu. right now at idle i have about a 11.5-12.0 reading, car starts up runs to temp etc

Thank you 
. Even though there is a lot of info out there on various other forums and in the megasquirt documentation, I've been thinking of writing an easy to follow "Getting started tuning" guide for complete newberts. I've been doing a fair bit of teaching to a friend of mine whom I set up with MS and I just think it would be nice to be able to offer a simple printed guide to people whom I sell MSs to (plus it saves me time on the phone

Can't find it. Can i not just get the car running on megatune first? I just want the wideband reading. Then start tuning? How does tuner studio help diagnose the problem for the wideband? just curious.

You would want to use tunerstudio. Megalogviewer is for viewing logs after the fact (and analyzing your VE table).

I'm officially confused.
1. You are SURE your LC-1 is installed properly and are getting a reading on the gauge.
2. You had the outputs wired incorrectly, so now you have the brown wire running to the gauge, and a "splice" off of that running to pin 10.
Is this correct? If that is the case, I would think your splice is suspect here. A multimeter will tell you if there is voltage getting to the pin from the wire. Check that and report back.
