Default URGENT HELP NEEDED!!!

Im in the middle of fitting my secs monitor in my 4x4 cosworth and have come across 2 problems;

1. it says i need to connect the grey wire to pin 25 on cos connector loom but not got grey wire in the loom with secs

2. the white wire connects to pin 15 on cos connector loom but that wire joins into another wire then is a big black wire

Has anyone got a pic of the back of their secs so i can see connections and wires please?

And how did they connect the white wire, pics if pos please?

Green pin no 17
White pin no 15
red pin no 20
yellow pin 31
blue pin no 29

Thats what i have anyway!
Don't know about the white wire prob but i would guess you need to solder a wire to the white before it goes into another??

Just a thought these connections are from an early SECS monitor so if you have a newer one with rev counter etc...yours may be different!

If it hasn't got a grey wire then its more than likely an early one as these didn't have a rev counter!
If your wires are the same colour as what i listed then wire them that way!!

If the monitor you have wasn't made with a rev counter facility then you can connect as amny wires as you like and you still won't have one
I take it this monitor was s/hand?

Yes was second hand, got it working now apart from the white wire which is for map sensor on pin 15.
