Default LC1 issue

i wired my lc1 wideband this morning and im using a push button with an led to calibrate it.. however the led doesnt light up and the sensor isnt getting warm at all.. i have all the ground wires connected to the ecu grounds and im using the switch 12v from the engine bay (blue connector behind headlight) is there a way to check it thrugh the Megasquirt

anyone? i think the issue is around the calibration wire? the LED isnt lighting at all.. i can get it to light with a continuity gauge and it goes off with the push button.. the control box is getting 12v and ive put all my grounds to the ecu ground.. i just cannot get the led to work when its connected up as the manual states.. what voltage should i see from the black calibration wire?

It would be better to try to connect to the LC-1's serial port via LogWorks. Are you able to get a connection there?

Dude, you bought an LC-1, never configured it, didn't even download the software to try, and now you're sending it back? However, I don't blame you, I'd rather have an MTX-L too.

Pretty much man.. i bought it off a friend (a long term member on here). it worked when he took it out if his car and when it didn't work for me he said he'd take it back.. Plus, after reading that the MTX-L is a better option i said why not save for a little bit longer and get it.. either that or an AEM but i like the look of the MTX and considering that they're relatively the same price then sod it...
