Re: Wideband AEM Failsafe 30-4900 connection

Well I spent most of this afternoon trying to figure out why this wasn't working. Then I did some research on com0com and the AEM WBFS Bridge software....
So it turns out you do not use the DLP for this method. You do use the USB connection from the AEM gauge.
For anyone else wanting to do this, the AEM WBFS Bridge was developed by the Evo community to log the AFR signal from this gauge. The bridge software basically converts the data from the USB cable to a serial/COM output signal. com0com then basically duplicates this signal to another com port number that can then be used with Nistune (or other software).
So for the method above, all you do is plug the USB cable from the gauge into your computer, run the bridge software selecting either of the two com port numbers from com0com, then run Nistune and configure the AEM wideband to use the other com port number.
The downside to this option is that it does not log boost. AFR/Lambda only.
