Connecting ZT-2 to my EBL

Search isn't working, and I have to have this up and running tomorrow morning. What wire from my ZT-2 box goes to what PIN on the EBL? Is there more than one wire that needs to go from the box to the EBL? I know I can ruin my sensor by starting the car without it properly hooked up, but I'm not sure how to configure it.

Re: Connecting ZT-2 to my EBL

I'm using the white wire ('wideband analog output' Pin 2 on the ZT2 box) to datalog to EBL. It is connected to channel 0. You can use any of the EBL inputs as long as you have the correct channel selected in the Whats Up prefrences. That is the only wire I used to connect to EBL. Been in almost 2 years and appears to datalog ok...

Re: Connecting ZT-2 to my EBL

I cant find a good HOT IN RUN wire to tap my ZT-2 power wire to. I tried the radio, but then I got interference in the speakers. I tried the power window pink wire in the center console, but that gave me a mad voltage drop when I raised/lowered the windows. What should I tap this thing into?

Probably not supposed to, but for awhile I ran mine tapped off the power wire for the ECM.

There is usually some spare IGN taps on the fuse block.

Re: Connecting ZT-2 to my EBL

I went ahead and tapped it to the IGN wire leading to the ECM. For some reason now I am still getting very high pitched interference to my speakers. Anytime the key is on I hear it. If I unplug either side of the ZT-2 controller it goes away. Nothing is close to my RCA cables at all, which run from my deck through my center console to my amp in the rear.
