Getting Lambda AFR reading with no Lamda unit?

Post by Keith »

Hey guys,

I did a Hondalogging recording and I'm getting AFR numbers without having a Lambda or any wideband O2 sensor of any kind... How is this possible?

Thanks,

Keith

In file, settings on the lambda tab, do you have the display lambda box checked?

I'll have to double check... but if it is, would it still give me readings? I mean the numbers aren't static... they are fluctuating...

Just checked... and no, it's not checked in..

BTW, this showing up on the graph and sensors view... not the dash view...

It doesn't sound like there is a problem.

Just so we are clear, I should be getting AFR readings even if I don't have a wideband O2 sensor? Where am I getting these numbers from and are these readings accurate?

IF you are not seeing readings in the display of Hondalogger and you do not have a wideband input to the ecu, and you do not have the display lambda reading checked, then you can ignore any other information you are seeing. Without a wideband you are not getting accurate readings of any kind.
