  1. Hello, per a previous recommendation, I now have a new AEM CAN wideband controller (kit 30-0310) that I will be hooking up to my G4X. I am also planning to use the Link MXS dash, eventually. Couple questions/clarification requests that should hopefully finalize my setup. I'm planning to use CANPCB/CANF to connect the AEM controller to the Link G4X CAN port #1. I assume CAN high/low is AEMnet +/- and will wire it up that way? For power, switched 12v with a 5a inline fuse, per AEM. Grounded to engine block or head, per what I've read from Link forums? I think I remember reading how to configure these in the G4X help manual, under "Device Specific CAN Info", so should be good there. For the Link MXS dash, I am assuming I can connect that into CAN port #2 on my G4X, using CANPCB/CANF again? Looks like AIM MXS setup is also in the same help manual section. Thanks!
  2. Thanks for the info, that helps. Data analysis is an important piece for me. Looks like brake pressure and steering angle is missing from the CAN template? I suppose I could add those to the dash using the available channels.
  3. Hello, I am looking at an unused AIM MXL Pro dash from what looks to be 2004 (yes, never used, good deal). I am concerned there may be compatibility issues with my G4X or other issues/limitations I might not be aware of. Anyone have experience with these and G4X, or should I just avoid it and get something newer? My plan is to have all my (Link) sensors go to the G4X, then just send it all to the dash via CAN. The dash would also function as my logger as well. Thanks!
  4. Ok thanks, that is what I was not sure of. Thanks for the info as well. I am leaning toward switching over to Link CAN Lambda, the gauge is not a big deal (see below for ultimate goal). My ultimate goal is to get rid of all my older style gauges/sensors (oil temp/pressure, coolant temp, afr) and get the data into Link (I want to add fuel pressure as well). Then use an AIM dash for displaying and monitoring everything. With that said, I think I will need: Link CAN Lambda I think I need a CANPCB and CANF connector too? 1x Link pressure sensor for fuel pressure (PS150) 1x Link dual sensor for oil pressure/temp (CPTS) 1x Expansion harness for sensors Coolant temp - I'll just use the factory input and remove my gauge, sensor, wiring Does that sound like a reasonable plan? Sorry for the scope creep on the topic, want to make sure I get everything right this time Also, I found this topic after I posted, which was also helpful for my situation:
  5. Hello, I have a classic AEM uego wideband sensor and gauge (30-4110) already installed and working in my e36 BMW. I would like to get the wideband data into the LinkECU via CANbus, but not exactly sure how to get it there, or if I need the different AEM X-series kit? Can I just use a CANF plug to the wideband CAN H/L, then CANPCB from that to the Link? Seems like I would need to splice into the harness from the wideband if I did that though. Also, can I retain the AEM afr gauge? Edit: I also found the Link CAN Lambda would be an option to eliminate the AEM stuff, but curious if I can re-use what I have first. Thanks for any help.
  6. Ok, great and thanks for the quick reply! I think I will use the stock sensor for now, to get the car up and running, as it is a pain to get to the IAT wires under the manifold.
  7. Hello, I am installing a new G4X into a an OBDI e36. It has the m50 intake manifold which has an intake air temp sensor in it already. However, it is located inside the manifold, not before the throttle body as recommended. I bought a "fast response" IAT sensor to install before the throttle body in my intake piping. FYI, this is a NA application, no boost, only bolt-ons. My question is, what do I wire the new IAT sensor to on the G4X? Or, do I wire it up to the existing IAT sensor plug/wires and just leave the OEM IAT unplugged? Do I even need the fast response IAT for a non-boosted application? Thanks!
