I got my X16 guage wet this weekend. I could see moisture under the bezel. It acted up, but then began working normally. Now that it has dried out, I am getting a fast flashing E 2 reading.
Has anyone else had a similar problem? I am leaving for Cooke City in 36 hours and really would like to have the gauge working to tune this thing on its first trip to high altitude!

From what I have found so far on a little searching I did:
Error 2:
Error Message: Heater circuit open.
Problem: Damaged cable or DIN connector not fully seated.
Fix: Verify DIN connector is fully seated.
LM-1 Manual (which applies to XD-16 as well)

Thanks Allen. I was not aware that the Innovate Forums existed. I can learn some things there.
I have checked all connections, multiple times. I will call Innovate tomorrow to see if they have ideas as well.

Possible that moisture got into a connection somewhere? Di-electric grease on all connections!

I have the e 4 code flashing. Will the sensor burn out using race gas?

I checked all connections and ground wires. The blue wire is the ground for the sensor - very important that it has a strong ground source. Still nothing. I did an ohm test across the #3 and #4 pin in the sensor and go no reading (should be 2.5 ohms).
Called Innovate today. They quickly told me that the sensor was dead - get a new one. Many causes were offered for why it died so quickly - leaded fuel being one of them, another being condensation in the exhaust contacting the sensor. I will install tonight and hope for the best. Innovate told me to pull the sensor and install the plug once I had my fuel dialed in - otherwise I would be buying new ones with frequency! :ORC
I got a replacement sensor from the local VW dealer - VW part number is 021-906-262-B.
I was a bit shocked (and disappointed) looking at the forum on Innovate's website...there are a lot of people with problems with these systems!

Wideband o2 sensor Bosch part# 17014 $56.96 @ any Advance Auto store. Also on E-bay like 27.00 + shipping 
Maybe I should add an O2 sensor to my backpack contents.
Thanks for the P/N at Advance Auto - VW is very proud of their$.

The new sensor took care of it. Man - I hope I don't go through O2 sensors like I used to go through 2-stroke oil!
Headed to Cooke City in the morning!

I think I have only about15 hours on mine but it is with 114 race gas. I will try a new sensor.

I have over 500 miles on mine and it still is working fine. I have only run 110 leaded fuel also.
Sensor #2 lasted about 3 hours. Same failure. 50/50 race fuel and unleaded.
Anyone want to buy a Innovate wideband O-2 gauge cheap - I am disgusted with it. Viewing the forums on Innovate's website and talking with their tech department prompts me to go another direction.

New sensor fixed mine. Hope it lasts more than 15 hours this time.
