Default help with wideband, what should i do?!

Hey, i bought an AEM uego wideband that was used from someone i knew and i guess i fouled the sensor or something. It won't read hardly at all and im starting to worry that i'll wash the rings since i got huge injectors with my new setup. The sensor heats up and etc, it really sucks since they are not cheap. I'm sorta on a budget right now so i was thinking if i should buy a new sensor and street tune, or should i just leave as is, get dyno tuned and buy sensor when money allows? Sucks i dont know anyone else with a wideband, but if anyone has one that wants to help, let me know. Lates

O2 sensors are cheap, but if that is it can't you leave it out? it'll just throw a code and if you can override it or whatever you'll get more performance out of it, instead of it dictating your fuel economy, if its something else i think it would be dumb to waste the money on a tune when you could pay for the sensor with that money and only tune once, rather than having to tune again when you replace the sensor

Hey faded, how has your experience with the uego been? I've heard some mixed things about it, i was thinking of switching over possibly. Lates

does the uego part number 30-4100 come with everything you need to monitor the AFR?

I think the O2 sensor for those things are pretty expensive.
