I don't know if anyone tried this for the secs monitor???

I tried it for the rev counter ages ago but it never worked.

It MAY work for the secs monitor, has anyone tried it??

Basically, it connects to the two OUTER wires (negs) on the coil pack plug, and the other to the rev counter/item input.

I take no responsibility for you trying anything I've said!!!!
