The pickup in the distributor is a 2 wire magnetic pickup and generates
it's output when a metal surface passes by.

The flywheel pickup on the other hand is I believe a Hall Effect pickup and
requires power and needs a magnet to pass by to give an output. Seems to me
that if you get power to the pickup (+12 to the red wire) and wire the
black & white wires to the TP45, it may work.

I have not tried this as I have my TP45 wired to my distributor pickup.

Regards,
Bill

Subject: Ignition Module Wiring - revisited

I have finally decided to change my secondary ignition module to the TP45
from the Stratus supplied unit. I searched the archives here but did not
find any definitive info on the coding of the three wires coming from the
Stratus supplied flywheel pick-up.
Here is what I found in the archives:
Coil + goes to TP45 B terminal

Coil - goes to TP45 C terminal

Magnetic pick-up + (usually a red wire) goes to TP45 G

Magnetic pick-up - (usually a white wire) goes to TP45 W
The magnetic pick-up I have has three wires, Red, White and Black. The
suggestions above from the archives did not work. Can some one using this
Stratus supplied pick-up tell me which one is which? I assume the third
wire

is +12v.
Thanks,

Hi Hugh,
I looked at my ignition this evening and find three wires red black and
green coming from the pickup to a plug connected with the solid state
module that goes with the flywheel pickup. From it, two wires red and
black come from the solid state box to my B coil, red to the black with
white stripe coil wire and the black going to the blue coil wire. I'm
not sure that you could use the TP45 in replacement of the solid state
box provided by Stratus.
