so i got my xede installed by shiv when he came down to houston for the dynoday - since then ive been trying to get my smart installed - no shop in houston has the faintest idea of how to install it - i went to carboy on bissonnet earlier today and it was a bad idea - long story short they gave up halfway thru the install and now i have the wideband sitting on my passenger seat with only 2 or 3 wires connected to the xede and a wiring harness for i dont even know what ziptied off to the side in my enginebay - im worried they tried tapping power from the xede which i know is not supposed to be done or maybe something else im not even sure - he just kept saying he doesnt know which "red wire" is supposed to go where - he said theres too many red wires - im not very skilled at this so i have no idea whats going on and i'm trying to remain calm but i need it fixed asap - if anyone in houston can help me with this or recommend me a competent shop near the southwest i'd greatly appreciate it

Joe did they connect the wideband to power if they did disconect it since it gets hot and may burn your seat. My schedule is tight but let me see if a friend is up to it.

 

nope its not powered up i just checked it - thanks for the quick response - im not exactly sure what the hooked up and what they left - let me check the colors

 

Wish I was near you buddy did my install in about 1Hr
