Electrical issue with gauge (not gremlins)

Okay, didn't really know where else to post this.... here goes. Headlights off my WBO2 gauge reads dead on. When I turn the parking lights or headlights on the WBO2 gauge reads a point lean at idle, but is fine once I hit WOT. I am guessing I need to check my ground, which I haven't done yet, just seeing if anyone else has had this issue. Finally put 2&2 together that it only does this with the lights on when i was setting up my injectors the other day. Any help is appreciated.

This is for your Wideband? My guess would be since the engine is under a load from the lights being on but I'm not sure. I can check mine tomorrow morning.

Yes for my wideband...I am guessing it is an engine load issue, but I am kinda **** when it comes to reading engine statistical data, and wanted to see if anyone else had run into this...

Ground and power connections are easy to check and make sense to your symptoms
