    Yeah. PM me for the address, etc.

    As for the older unit that uses the LSU4.2, I think that would be an AEM 30-4100? If so, that is a completely different piece that has no CAN interface. The re-flash only works for the X-series devices: 30-0300, 30-0310, 30-0333 and 30-0334. It PROBABLY would work for the 30-0350 pro dual units. But, that has never been tested.

    Dr. Mike,
    i have the 30-0300 in my 2005 GTO (CAN Bus). i have tried the AC pressure switch route (https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...hp-tuners.html), but it doesn't come up as a loggable parameter as soon as i record. looking at the manual for the 30-0300 and the 30-0310, they look like the same gauge except for the included harness, no? is is possible to just wire my 30-0300 into the CAN bus at the DLC, r do i need something else (resistor or otherwise)?

    The hardware is the same. But, the firmware needs to be updated to convert to OBDII. After that, you can wire it into the DLC connector CAN lines.

    We've just added support for MPVI 2 CAN based sensors via the ProLink pigtail in VCM Scanner. The AEM and Zeitronix widebands are currently in the latest beta.

    We'd like some feedback.

    We'll add more sensors as they are requested.

    I'll swap the wires over on my prolink today. Thanks!

    I just finished testing multiple combinations of AEM 30-0300 and 30-0310 widebands with the latest beta VCMScanner ( 4.5.1198 ). Everything appears to be working with up to at least the 4 units I have, simultaneously.


    Here's what I did: ( connecting via the Prolink CAN wires )

    1. Repoll for supproted parameters.l
    2. Add the channel "External Inputs"/AEM/X-Series UEGO (30-03xx)/"WB EQ Ratio 1"
    3. Add to chart "WB EQ Ratio 1" NOT the SAE version
    4. Do NOT use the Generic Sensor, when queried.
    5. Make sure the CAN ID on the WB is set to match the channel number you are adding.


    Then added EQ Ratio 2, 3, 4, etc.

    So, it looks like there is now a solution for all of the pre-CAN ECU guys. I wonder if anyone will send me 30-0334s to flash back to 30-0300 ?

    Here it is running demo/test data from 3 channels of 30-0310.

    Onward to my 2002 Blown LQ4 Silverado !

    Hey Dr. Mike, I have one of your flashed 03-3000 to 30-0333's, working fine all this time, now I just ordered a 2nd one for bank 2, but not connected to car yet I didnt think it was working since I can blow on the sensor and get the display to change on 02 mode, but no data changes in HPTuners.. no big deal I figured it out using propane gas (my breath just wasnt creating enough change).

    Anyway, before I realized that, I checked the signals. The 0333 has 4 bytes coming in, the 0334 only has 2. Do you know what the extra information is on the 0333? Do you think one could be set for o2, the other Lambda? Then I wonder if these still output the original AEMNet signals on different or same pins?

    It's some equivalency voltage thing that nobody uses. I started using it for debug information

    Very efficient! Hopefully I have only one last question!! Sorry, may be a little off topic for the last post but still relevant on the 30-0300 stuff.

    Had this 30-0300, updated to the 30-0333, working fine all this time. Couldnt get the two working side by side in HPTuners right away in channels just by changing the BIT (one 24, one 25), so I switched displays between the two sensors, in the process I free air cal'd the 30-0300 with new sensor, then when I put back in the car with the original sensor it appears to freeze (no response from HPT, buttons or sensor). So, I switch to 02 display since that shows a value rather than -----, and it heats, then jumps to 20.90 exactly and freezes. Nothing I do gets it to a menu, HPT wont see it. Numbers on the screen wont budge.

    Then, I take the new 30-0334, connect to this in car sensor, same exact thing. Appears to freeze, like it's reading over 20.90 and they don't like that so they freeze. Menu's dont work so I cant re-cal out of this situation.... or.. maybe....

    I can use the 30-0300 on the new sensor, no problem since it jumps to 20.81ish, stays responsive, no problem. The new 30-0334, on the original sensor, will unfreeze if it power it on with no sensor connected, then hold 'left button' then plug sensor in.. it see's the sensor type then jumps right to the normal menus. I free-air calibrate and no problem, now this one works fine. I cant get the original 03-0300 to boot this way... so now it just wont work with the old sensor no matter what.

    At this point, both are working fine, but the 30-0300 only works with the new sensor, and the new gauge works perfect with both sensors, after I was able to somehow force a free air calibration, if that makes sense. If a calibration can be run, they always pass.

    Then, to get them both to register in latest HPT BETA VCM Suite (Beta) 4.5.1209, I had to change the ECU in each to a different number, one 7E7, one 7E6. Changing just the BIT didn't do it.. One was always missing.

    What do you think? Is there an update avail for the original 30-0300 to handle a used sensor recal? This is the first time I recaled since I got it.

    One final free air-calibration on both, they read 20.81, 20.81, most of the time, occasionally one would bump to 20.82 or 20.80. Pretty crazy close.

    Resistor calibration (which isnt always avail - haven't figured out why) brings those values way down, like 20.1. Not sure how that is even close to accurate like they say.

    Thanks Doc!!

    Each controller needs its own ECU ID. They are seperate controllers on the bus. They can actually share a PID number. But, that gets confusing.

    I'll have to have a look at the new/old sensor thing.

    As for free-air cal vs. resistor cal. The number that shows up on resistor cal O2% will depend on your altitude, barometer reading and air temperature.

    I have a table here, somewhere. But, for example, I am at 400'ASL. On Rcal, the new sensors read about 20.5% - 20.6%.

    20.1% might put you around 2000'ASL depending on air temp and barometer reading.

    This is all because wideband sensors really have no idea what the O2%, lambda, or AFR values are. What they actually measure is the partial pressure of Oxygen. And they calculate o2% lambda, and AFR from that number. The partial pressure of Oxygen, at sea level, under standard temperature and pressure is 14.7psi x 0.209 = 3.07psi. As the altitude goes up, the air pressure drops. And the Oxygen pressure drops proportionally. In Denver ( 5000'ASL ) I think it would read about 19.3%, Even though the O2% really still is 20.9%, proportionally.

    Doing a free-cal forces the controller to call whatever it currently measures as 20.8% by scaling.

    This is, actually, a great way to test sensors. If you get a reasonable number, based on your altitude, your sensor is good to go.
    SOMEWHERE, I have the full correction table with Altitude, Barometer, Temperature, and relative humidity. But, in reality, the sensors are only rated to +/- 2%. So, that gets a bit pedantic

    Something like

    On the plus side, you can use the oxygen percentage reading to test a sensor for drift/damage.

    Using rCal, set the gauge to display oxygen percentage ( 4-digit ). Your target reading should be 20.70 ? ( elevation x 0.00028 )

    e.g.

    @0? : 20.70 ? ( 0 x 0.00028 ) = 20.70 +/-2% = 20.29 ? 20.90 (max val )
    @2000? : 20.70 ? ( 2000 x 0.00028 ) = 20.14 +/-2% = 19.74 ? 20.54
    @4500? : 20.70 ? ( 4500 x 0.00028 ) = 19.44 +/-2% = 19.05 ? 19.83
    @8000? : 20.70 ? ( 8000 x 0.00028 ) = 18.46 +/-2% = 18.09 ? 18.83

    If your sensor is in range, it is almost 100% certain it is good. Sensors that read too low are probably clogged at the diffusion orifice. Sensors that read too high have compromised pump chemistry ( lead poisoning, etc. ) or are cracked and are leaking extra air into the test cell.
    Usually gets it done

    so if im reading the forum correctly i can get my AEM 03-0300 reflashed to be able to do the obdII passthrough on a canbus vehicle? i currently have it setup using the serial connection, with the MPVi2. this is being used in my 2008 suburban 2500 with an E38 PCM.

    id like to be able to use this wideband with canbus and the serial setup. im planning a gen 3 ls swap later this year in a non canbus vehicle. and do i need the pro feature set to be able to do the canbus passthrough?

    thanks, matt

    The re-flashed units act just like 30-0334s. So, they will work, through the OBDII port, with the standard scanner. You need the pro features/prolink to use the analog interface. Not sure about the serial interface. But, the re-flashed units actually have upgraded serial data; with faster updates and an extra digit of resolution. You will need to get some extra pins to add the serial wire to the connector. I probably have a few laying around.

    i already have a AEM 03-0300. and it does work with the serial connection currently. but if i can use the OBDII passthrough setup, that would make setting up a lot cleaner. i dont have it permanently installed. so for power i plug into the cigarette lighter, then have my serial connection.

    what does it take to reflash the newer firmware on it? is this something i can do? or do i need to send it off to have it done? even if i can get better serial data im happy with that too. i do NOT have the pro link features.

    You would have to send it to me for re-flashing. It's not something that can be done without special tools.

    So, just to confirm. The 30-0334s work through the ProLink cable CAN inputs? Or is there still some wonky things going on with these ProLink units?

    The 30-0300 and 30-0310 work through the CAN interface on the Pro-Link.

    The 30-0334 or, the re-flashed versions of the 30-0300 or 30-0310, work through the vehicle's OBDII port. Usually, via a pass-thru connector. But, they can, alternately, be wired into the CAN pins on the back of the OBDII port. In this case, it works with the standard version of the MPVI2. i.e. it does not require the Pro Features/Pro-Link. But, it only works with CAN based ECUs. Which are, usually, 2007, or later.

    So the 30-0334 CAN buss output, wont work through the ProLink Can Buss inputs? I was considering wiring both the CAN and Analog outputs from the 30-0334 to the ProLink, and doing away with the OBD2 adapter that comes with it.

    Why would you not just purchase a 30-0300 if you were going to go about this route? It will do exactly what you want out of the box.

    Because Im new to this and didn't know any better. I already made the purchase and didnt realize there were other models, that supported CAN buss logging. I'm probably just going to use serial for logging anyway, but i wanted an interface that could use any type of logging, at any given time, depending on what i was doing. Just wanted connection options for logging.

    You could easily test it by probing the can pins on the 30-0334 and connecting that to the prolink.
