the std wiring has a live, earth and signal which is pin 2 on the ecu plug.

should be easy to work out which is which.

is your chip closed loop enabled?

Just be very careful using a "universal" Lambda sensor - had issues with one on mine and the software would only work properly once I installed a genuine OEM lambda (Stu sells them for Ł70) - at all other times, it wasn't running in closed loop mode when it should of been.

The latest ones from the usa are very good and accurate, used a few lately, without problems.

so does this mean my loom will have a standard ford 4 pin lambda plug in it somewhere??

That might be another random unused wiring plug identified then!!
