Is it possible to connect a Knocksense to the Microsquirt V2 ?

You can make the electrical connection on pin 5 (spareADC2) of the Ampseal. This was not possible on V1.0.

Good catch... this needs to be corrected, like Al indicates we bring out the spare ADC on this pin on V2 version.

If you mean a physical wire in the cable bundle, look at the back of the wire bundle coming from the Ampseal. You can read the starting pin nos on each side. Just count down from no. one and see if there is a wire plugged into the no. 5 slot. On mine there is an orange with dark stripe wire (not sure if its grreen or black, but you can connect an ohmmeter to each end and check for connection.

cool will do, it's just going to be a pain in the bum to find out lol


edit:
just checked, it's a small brown wire with a black stripe.
You might want to update the microsquirt info wiring page.
